The family of Brazilian football legend Pele have said they’re ‘tired’ of receiving condolences.
The three-time World Cup winner is currently in hospital, but his daughter, Flavia, denied reports he’s receiving palliative care.
Another of his daughters, Kely, added that the 82-year-old had COVID three weeks ago, which has led to some respiratory problems.
However, she added that he’s ‘not saying goodbye’ and he will ‘be back home’ when he’s recovered.
Pele’s grandson, Arthur, says that his grandfather still enjoys watching football and will witness Brazil win their sixth World Cup this year.
