Edson Arantes do Nascimento (Brazilian Portuguese: [ˈɛdsõ aˈɾɐ̃tʃiz du nasiˈmẽtu]; 23 October 1940 – 29 December 2022), better known by his nickname Pelé (Portuguese pronunciation: [peˈlɛ]), was a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a forward.. Widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time, he was among the most successful and popular sports figures of the 20th century.. In 1999, he was named Athlete of the Century by the International Olympic Committee and was included in the Time list of the 100 most important people of the 20th century.. In 2000, Pelé was voted World Player of the Century by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS) and was one of the two joint winners of the FIFA Player of the Century.. His 1,279 goals in 1,363 games, which includes friendlies, is recognised as a Guinness World Record.. 
Pelé began playing for Santos at age 15 and the Brazil national team at 16.. During his international career, he won three FIFA World Cups: 1958, 1962 and 1970, the only player to do so and the youngest player to win a World Cup (17).. He was nicknamed O Rei (The King) following the 1958 tournament.. Pelé is the joint-top goalscorer for Brazil with 77 goals in 92 games.. At the club level, he was Santos's all-time top goalscorer with 643 goals in 659 games.. In a golden era for Santos, he led the club to the 1962 and 1963 Copa Libertadores, and to the 1962 and 1963 Intercontinental Cup.. Credited with connecting the phrase "The Beautiful Game" with football, Pelé's "electrifying play and penchant for spectacular goals" made him a star around the world, and his teams toured internationally to take full advantage of his popularity.. During his playing days, Pelé was for a period the best-paid athlete in the world.. After retiring in 1977, Pelé was a worldwide ambassador for football and made many acting and commercial ventures.. In 2010, he was named the honorary president of the New York Cosmos.. 
Averaging almost a goal per game throughout his career, Pelé was adept at striking the ball with either foot in addition to anticipating his opponents' movements on the field.. While predominantly a striker, he could also drop deep and take on a playmaking role, providing assists with his vision and passing ability, and he would also use his dribbling skills to go past opponents.. In Brazil, he was hailed as a national hero for his accomplishments in football and for his outspoken support of policies that improve the social conditions of the poor.. His emergence at the 1958 World Cup, where he became a black global sporting star, was a source of inspiration.. Throughout his career and in his retirement, Pelé received numerous individual and team awards for his performance on the field, his record-breaking achievements, and his legacy in the sport.. 
Early years

Born in Três Corações in Minas Gerais state in Brazil in 1940, Pelé has a street named after him in the city – Rua Edson Arantes do Nascimento.. A statue of Pelé is also prominently placed in a plaza near the city's downtown.. Pelé was born Edson Arantes do Nascimento on 23 October 1940 in Três Corações, Minas Gerais, the son of Fluminense footballer Dondinho (born João Ramos do Nascimento) and Celeste Arantes.. He was the elder of two siblings, with brother Zoca also playing for Santos, albeit not as successfully.. He was named after the American inventor Thomas Edison.. His parents decided to remove the "i" and call him "Edson", but there was a typo on his birth certificate, leading many documents to show his name as "Edison", not "Edson", as he was called.. He was originally nicknamed "Dico" by his family.. He received the nickname "Pelé" during his school days, when, it is claimed, he was given it because of his pronunciation of the name of his favourite player, local Vasco da Gama goalkeeper Bilé, which he misspoke, but the more he complained the more it stuck.. In his autobiography released in 2006, Pelé stated he had no idea what the name means, nor did his old friends.. Apart from the assertion that the name is derived from that of "Bilé", the word has no meaning in Portuguese.[note 2]

Pelé grew up in poverty in Bauru in the state of São Paulo.. He earned extra money by working in tea shops as a servant.. Taught to play by his father, he could not afford a proper football and usually played with either a sock stuffed with newspaper and tied with string or a grapefruit.. He played for several amateur teams in his youth, including Sete de Setembro, Canto do Rio, São Paulinho, and Ameriquinha.. Pelé led Bauru Atlético Clube juniors (coached by Waldemar de Brito) to two São Paulo state youth championships.. In his mid-teens, he played for an indoor football team called Radium.. Indoor football had just become popular in Bauru when Pelé began playing it.. He was part of the first futsal (indoor football) competition in the region.. Pelé and his team won the first championship and several others.. 
According to Pelé, futsal (indoor football) presented difficult challenges: he said it was a lot quicker than football on the grass, and that players were required to think faster because everyone is close to each other in the pitch.. Pelé credits futsal for helping him think better on the spot.. In addition, futsal allowed him to play with adults when he was about 14 years old.. In one of the tournaments he participated in, he was initially considered too young to play, but eventually went on to end up top scorer with 14 or 15 goals.. "That gave me a lot of confidence", Pelé said, "I knew then not to be afraid of whatever might come"..

1956–1962: Early years with Santos and declared a national treasure

Pelé in 1962, by then rated the best player in the world
In 1956, de Brito took Pelé to Santos, an industrial and port city located near São Paulo, to try out for professional club Santos FC, telling the club's directors that the 15-year-old would be "the greatest football player in the world." Pelé impressed Santos coach Lula during his trial at the Estádio Vila Belmiro, and he signed a professional contract with the club in June 1956.. Pelé was highly promoted in the local media as a future superstar.. He made his senior team debut on 7 September 1956 at the age of 15 against Corinthians de Santo André and had an impressive performance in a 7–1 victory, scoring the first goal in his prolific career during the match.. 
When the 1957 season started, Pelé was given a starting place in the first team and, at the age of 16, became the top scorer in the league.. Ten months after signing professionally, the teenager was called up to the Brazil national team.. After the 1958 and the 1962 World Cup, wealthy European clubs, such as Real Madrid, Juventus and Manchester United, tried to sign him in vain.. In 1958, Inter Milan even managed to get him a regular contract, but Angelo Moratti was forced to tear the contract up at the request of Santos's chairman following a revolt by Santos's Brazilian fans.. Valencia CF also arranged an agreement that would have brought Pelé to the club after the 1958 World Cup, however after his performances at the tournament Santos declined to let the player leave.. In 1961 the government of Brazil under President Jânio Quadros declared Pelé an "official national treasure" to prevent him from being transferred out of the country.. 
Pelé won his first major title with Santos in 1958 as the team won the Campeonato Paulista; he would finish the tournament as the top scorer, with 58 goals, a record that still stands today.. A year later, he would help the team earn their first victory in the Torneio Rio-São Paulo with a 3–0 over Vasco da Gama.. However, Santos was unable to retain the Paulista title.. In 1960, Pelé scored 33 goals to help his team regain the Campeonato Paulista trophy but lost out on the Rio-São Paulo tournament after finishing in 8th place.. In the 1960 season, Pelé scored 47 goals and helped Santos regain the Campeonato Paulista.. The club went on to win the Taça Brasil that same year, beating Bahia in the finals; Pelé finished as the top scorer of the tournament with nine goals.. The victory allowed Santos to participate in the Copa Libertadores, the most prestigious club tournament in the Western hemisphere.. 
1962–1965: Copa Libertadores success
"I arrived hoping to stop a great man, but I went away convinced I had been undone by someone who was not born on the same planet as the rest of us."

—Benfica goalkeeper Costa Pereira following the loss to Santos in 1962.. Santos's most successful Copa Libertadores season started in 1962; the team was seeded in Group One alongside Cerro Porteño and Deportivo Municipal Bolivia, winning every match of their group but one (a 1–1 away tie versus Cerro).. Santos defeated Universidad Católica in the semi-finals and met defending champions Peñarol in the finals.. Pelé scored twice in the playoff match to secure the first title for a Brazilian club.. Pelé finished as the second top scorer of the competition with four goals.. That same year, Santos would successfully defend the Campeonato Paulista (with 37 goals from Pelé) and the Taça Brasil (Pelé scoring four goals in the final series against Botafogo).. Santos would also win the 1962 Intercontinental Cup against Benfica.. Wearing his number 10 shirt, Pelé produced one of the best performances of his career, scoring a hat-trick in Lisbon as Santos won 5–2.. 

Pelé with Santos in the Netherlands, October 1962
Pelé states that his most memorable goal was scored at the Estádio Rua Javari on a Campeonato Paulista match against São Paulo rival Clube Atlético Juventus on 2 August 1959.. As there is no video footage of this match, Pelé asked that a computer animation be made of this specific goal.. In March 1961, Pelé scored the gol de placa (goal worthy of a plaque), against Fluminense at the Maracanã.. Pelé received the ball on the edge of his own penalty area, and ran the length of the field, eluding opposition players with feints, before striking the ball beyond the goalkeeper.. A plaque was commissioned with a dedication to "the most beautiful goal in the history of the Maracanã".. 

Pelé before facing Boca Juniors in the second leg of the 1963 Copa Libertadores Finals at La Bombonera.. As the defending champions, Santos qualified automatically to the semi-final stage of the 1963 Copa Libertadores.. The balé branco (white ballet), the nickname given to Santos at the time, managed to retain the title after victories over Botafogo and Boca Juniors.. Pelé helped Santos overcome a Botafogo team that featured Brazilian greats such as Garrincha and Jairzinho with a last-minute goal in the first leg of the semi-finals which made it 1–1.. In the second leg, Pelé scored a hat-trick in the Estádio do Maracanã as Santos won, 0–4, in the second leg.. Santos started the final series by winning, 3–2, in the first leg and defeating Boca Juniors 1–2, in La Bombonera.. It was a rare feat in official competitions, with another goal from Pelé.. Santos became the first Brazilian team to lift the Copa Libertadores in Argentine soil.. Pelé finished the tournament with five goals.. Santos lost the Campeonato Paulista after finishing in third place but went on to win the Rio-São Paulo tournament after a 0–3 win over Flamengo in the final, with Pelé scoring one goal.. Pelé would also help Santos retain the Intercontinental Cup and the Taça Brasil against AC Milan and Bahia respectively.. 
In the 1964 Copa Libertadores, Santos was beaten in both legs of the semi-finals by Independiente.. The club won the Campeonato Paulista, with Pelé netting 34 goals.. Santos also shared the Rio-São Paulo title with Botafogo and won the Taça Brasil for the fourth consecutive year.. In the 1965 Copa Libertadores, Santos reached the semi-finals and met Peñarol in a rematch of the 1962 final.. After two matches, a playoff was needed to break the tie.. Unlike 1962, Peñarol came out on top and eliminated Santos 2–1.. Pelé would, however, finish as the top scorer of the tournament with eight goals.. 
1966–1974: O Milésimo and final years with Santos
In 1966, Santos failed to retain the Taça Brasil as Pelé's goals were not enough to prevent a 9–4 defeat by Cruzeiro (led by Tostão) in the final series.. The club did, however, win the Campeonato Paulista in 1967, 1968, and 1969.. On 19 November 1969, Pelé scored his 1,000th goal in all competitions, in what was a highly anticipated moment in Brazil.. The goal dubbed O Milésimo (The Thousandth), occurred in a match against Vasco da Gama, when Pelé scored from a penalty kick, at the Maracanã Stadium.. 
In 1969, the two factions involved in the Nigerian Civil War agreed to a 48-hour ceasefire so they could watch Pelé play an exhibition game in Lagos.. Santos ended up playing to a 2–2 draw with Lagos side Stationary Stores FC and Pelé scored his team's goals.. The civil war went on for one more year after this game.. During his time at Santos, Pelé played alongside many gifted players, including Zito, Pepe, and Coutinho; the latter partnered him in numerous one-two plays, attacks, and goals.. After Pelé's 19th season with Santos, he left Brazilian football.. Pelé's 643 goals for Santos were the most goals scored for a single club until it was surpassed by Lionel Messi of Barcelona in December 2020.. 
New York Cosmos

After the 1974 season (his 19th with Santos), Pelé retired from Brazilian club football although he continued to occasionally play for Santos in official competitive matches.. A year later, he came out of semi-retirement to sign with the New York Cosmos of the North American Soccer League (NASL) for the 1975 season.. At a chaotic press conference at New York's 21 Club, the Cosmos unveiled Pelé.. John O'Reilly, the club's media spokesman, stated, "We had superstars in the United States but nothing at the level of Pelé.. Everyone wanted to touch him, shake his hand, get a photo with him." Though well past his prime at this point, Pelé was credited with significantly increasing public awareness and interest of the sport in the US.. During his first public appearance in Boston, he was injured by a crowd of fans who had surrounded him and was evacuated on a stretcher..

Pelé made his debut for the Cosmos on 15 June 1975 against the Dallas Tornado at Downing Stadium, scoring one goal in a 2–2 draw.. Pelé opened the door for many other stars to play in North America.. Giorgio Chinaglia followed him to the Cosmos, then Franz Beckenbauer and his former Santos teammate Carlos Alberto.. Over the next few years other players came to the league, including Johan Cruyff, Eusébio, Bobby Moore, George Best and Gordon Banks.. 1975 loo ,  lebanese antaryuddhaaniki ooka vaaram mundhu ,  peele lebanese premiyer leaguue starr ‌ l jattutho lebanese club nejmeh choose snehapurvaka game aadaadu ,  atani adhikarika lekkallo cherchani remdu goals chesudu ..  aata roejuna ,  match ‌ ni chuusaemduku tellavarujamu nunche  40  vaela mandhi preekshakulu staediyamku cherukunnaaru .
