Former Brazilian champion Pele, 80, is still in the Albert Einstein hospital in Sao Paulo after a health problem was detected during routine examinations.
'O Rei' has been hospitalized for six days, but the reason has not been communicated.
On the same day that Pelé went to the hospital to do some tests, his collaborators had immediately informed on social media that the former star of Santos and Selecao was in "good health".
His press office also denied that the former number 10 of the green-gold national team would have fainted.
"Guys, I have not fainted and I am in excellent health. I had routine exams, which I had not been able to do before due to the pandemic. Just inform me that I will not be able to play next Sunday", joked Pele with his closest collaborators.
