The sports world has been in mourning since the announcement of the death of legendary footballer Edson Arantes do Nascimento, known as Pelé, this Thursday, December 29, 2022.
If Rafael Nadal has often been the first to react in the world of tennis, Roger Federer also wanted to post a message on his social networks to pay tribute to the Brazilian who died at the age of 82.
“Thank you for inspiring millions of sports fans and athletes. I feel so lucky to have met you and had the chance to learn and admire you. You were one of the first true icons of world sport. Rest in peace King Pelé »wrote an obviously very moved Roger Federer.
