A profile of the man widely regarded as the greatest footballer of all time, complete with classic sporting archive, interviews with Brazilian heroes Torres, Tostao and Rivelino, Britain's Bobby Charlton, Alan Mullery and Bobby Moore, plus insights from sports journalists, authors, childhood friends and Pele's son Nascimento. Pele's story is as mesmerising as his glittering football career. An inspiration to millions of poor and oppressed, his sublime skill with the ball broke through the racial barriers of Brazil and thrilled millions of spectators around the globe. But there have also been tales of bankruptcy, dubious business deals, illegitimate children and failed marriage. Today Pele is both an ambassador for his sport and his country. Yet the man revered throughout the soccer world is not universally loved in his own country
