Pele - The Football Legend And The Soccer King
Pele or his real name Edison Arantes do Nascimento is a very famous celebrity. Anyone who loves soccer would definitely know who Pele is. He was the one who made soccer popular in the US when he joined the US professional league in the late 70's. I think he is among a very very few gifted footballer that doesn't lose battle with popularity or celebrities status. So many famous footballer just can't handle it and most of them would not admit it. So well done to Pele. You are definitely a legend. And people would definitely miss you when you are not around someday.
