Pele pays tribute to Queen Elizabeth: “I am a great admirer”

Pele paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, through social networks, this Thursday (8), after the announcement of the death of the British monarch.

The football king published photos of when he met the monarch on a visit to Brazil, and stated that he has admired her since the first time and has seen her in person.

“I have been a great admirer of Queen Elizabeth II since the first time I saw her in person, in 1968, when she came to Brazil to witness our love for football and experience the magic of a packed Maracanã,” wrote Pelé on his Twitter account.

“His deeds marked generations. This legacy will last forever.”
