Pele returned to hospital on Sunday for the final round of treatment for a colon tumor, the football legend himself explained on his Instagram account. The 81-year-old former Santos, Cosmos and Brazil player underwent surgery to remove a tumor in September and has since been undergoing regular treatment at a clinic in Sao Paulo. He posted a photo of himself smiling and a few words describing his hospitalization as routine.

“My friends, as I do every month, I am going to the hospital to continue my treatment. I’ve already ordered a big TV and some popcorn so I can watch the Super Bowl later (in the night from Sunday to Monday). I’m going to watch the game even though my friend Tom Brady isn’t playing. Thank you for all the messages of love. »
