Pele: Santos release funeral arrangements for the late World Cup legend

Edson Arantes do Nascimento, better known as Pele, was a Brazilian legend and a global football icon who passed away on December 29 in the evening following a protracted battle with cancer. His most recent club, Santos FC, has made known the specifics of how their greatest player will be buried beginning on January 2, 2023.

The legend will be laid to rest at Estádio Urbano Caldeira, the stadium where he captured the hearts of many, after a public ceremony, a street parade, and a private ceremony held just for the family. The burial will last until Tuesday.
 
Pele was a great hero that would be missed not by football lovers alone but by the whole world. He deserves more than this from his club and the Brazilian government. He is an hero his name would be remembered for life. I hope his burial would be covered by media's for us to be able to watch.
