The king is not at best. Pelé is going through a period of depression, his son and former goalkeeper Edinho told TV Globo. The former number 10 of the Seleção and Santos has suffered from hip problems for a very long time and has difficulty moving, so that he hesitates to leave his home. He walks with a walker.
Pelé is depressed at home
"He is quite fragile, he has had a hip replacement and does not have adequate rehabilitation. This mobility problem triggered a kind of depression. Imagine, he is the King, he has always been an imposing figure and, today, he cannot walk properly. He lives as a recluse. "
Pelé had been hospitalized in Paris last year because of a urinary tract infection. At the time, Neymar and Mbappé had visited him. A year later, says Edinho, the king "no longer wants to show himself or do almost nothing".
