After the sensational failure in the quarterfinals at the World Cup in Qatar, the superstar Neymar is about to resign. The seriously ill Icon Pele wants to stop him. At least when it comes to a media report.

As reported by the Portuguese newspaper “A Bola”, the 82-year-old would have made contact via the social network Instagram. Pelé wrote: “Your legacy is far from complete. You will continue to inspire us all and I will continue to applaud you for every goal you score, as I have in every game I have seen you on the pitch.”

The coming weeks and months will show whether his words will have the desired effect. There is no official confirmation for this media report.

On a side note: Neymar is currently playing 124 international matches for Brazil. He contributed 77 goals for the “Selecao”. As many as the icon Pelé.
