Pelé began his professional career at Santos at the age of 15 and debuted for the Brazil national team at 16. He is the only player in history to win three FIFA World Cups—1958, 1962, and 1970—and holds the record as the youngest player to win a World Cup, achieving this feat at 17. Following his dazzling performances in the 1958 tournament, he earned the nickname O Rei (The King).
 
Pelé scored 77 goals in 92 matches for Brazil, a record that stood as the national team’s highest for over five decades. At the club level, he became Santos’s all-time leading scorer with 643 goals in 659 appearances. During Santos's golden era, he guided the team to consecutive Copa Libertadores titles in 1962 and 1963, as well as back-to-back Intercontinental Cups in the same years.
 
Widely credited with popularizing the term "The Beautiful Game" in association with football, Pelé's electrifying skills and spectacular goals made him a global icon. His immense popularity led to international tours with his teams, further solidifying his status. For a time, he was the highest-paid athlete in the world.
 
After retiring in 1977, Pelé served as a global ambassador for football, appearing in films and commercials and supporting the sport’s growth worldwide. In 2010, he was named honorary president of the New York Cosmos.
