After the demise of Brazilian football legend Pele at the age of 82 on December 29, last year, a social media claim went viral stating that FIFA, the world’s football governing body, would keep the former Brazilian international player’s feet at the museum and that his family had given permission. Edson Arantes do Nascimento, better known by his nickname Pelé, was a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a forward.
The post is being shared on Twitter and Facebook with the claim “FIFA Will Keep Pele’s Feet In The Museum. Pele’s Family Has Given The Permission.”
