Albert Einstein Hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil, announced that Pele is currently being treated for enteritis, which was determined to be caused by a long-term tumor. This year, the Brazilian football legend has turned 81, so diseases like the current one are considered inevitable.
Not to the point of cancer, but this disease of Pele is very dangerous. 3 months ago, he had to have part of the tumor removed and was hospitalized for nearly a month to recover. At that time, the hospital had announced that it was very likely that Pele would have to undergo chemotherapy.
On Twitter, the three-time World Cup champion said he was feeling better every day, but it was unclear whether this was an act to reassure Pele's fans.
Thus, from 2019 to now, there have been at least 3 times Pele had to be hospitalized in a rather urgent condition. The diseases he suffered from did not come from bad habits or detrimental effects on the body, but simply Pele was getting old and would gradually suffer from diseases when the body's resistance was getting weaker.
