Pele's health improving but no forecast for hospital discharge, reveal doctors

Brazilian soccer great Pele returned to hospital on Monday as he continues to receive treatment for cancer, Sao Paulo`s Albert Einstein hospital said in a medical note on Tuesday.

Edson Arantes do Nascimento`s clinical condition is good and stable, and he is likely to be discharged in the next few days, doctors said, using Pele`s full name.

The 81-year-old had a tumour removed from his colon in September 2021 and has since been in and out of hospital for treatment on a regular basis.

Widely considered one of the greatest footballers of all time, the former Santos, New York Cosmos and Brazil player has suffered a series of health issues in recent years, including hip surgery that left him with recurring pain and trouble walking unaided.

In February, Pele was admitted to hospital for a round of chemotherapy when a urinary infection was identified, keeping him in longer than was planned.
