      by

      PELÉ’S £1.1million beachside mansion has been abandoned and stripped by fanatic looters following the legend’s death.The late star’s once-luxurious home in Brazil’s coastline is now a graveyard of memories of lovers, football, and a debt of thousands of pounds after his family took over the mansion.Pele passed away in December 2022 aged 82 after a long battle with cancerCredit: AFPThe once-luxury backyard now has a dirty pool and overgrown grassCredit: G1 SantosThe home had a room full of Pele memorabilia, but now lies fully destroyedCredit: G1 SantosFor over 40 years, Pelé’s haven was his mansion situated in an exclusive condominium in Guarujá, in the São Paulo state.In the property valued at approximately £1.1million (R$8 million), the King of Football experienced the greatest memories between his many trips around the world.Just 500 metres from the ocean, the house is located on Pernambuco beach, one of the most prestigious beaches in Brazil.Built on land that occupies an entire block, Pelé’s home is surrounded by a stone wall, which looks more like a fortress.Read more about footballBehind it, there are stories that begin around 1981, when Pelé stopped living in New York to resume life close to his family in Brazil.THE KING’S HAVENWith dozens of suites and rooms, there was plenty of space for his countless trophies, a cinema and even a professional studio where Pelé ventured to record his own songs. When friends came over, a huge dance club on the top floor would turn any gathering into a wild party.The King didn’t need to leave his home to have fun as his backyard featured tennis and footvolley courts, a mini football field, a sauna and a large swimming pool.Most read in FootballPelé also built a chapel on the site, so that his mother, Celeste, could pray, as the Arantes do Nascimento family had always been very Catholic.Brazil football legend Pele dies aged 82The house used to have a beautiful pool area before the star’s deathCredit: G1 SantosPele’s living room used to look like this before it was left to rotCredit: instagram/@leodiasWhat was once a stunning living room is now left to crumbleCredit: instagram/@leodiasThe mansion was the King’s penultimate home.

By the age of 16, he was the top scorer in the Brazilian league.Pelé’s international debut came in 1957 when he played for the Brazilian national team. He gained worldwide recognition during the 1958 FIFA World Cup in Sweden, where he scored six goals, including two in the final, helping Brazil win their first World Cup. At just 17, he became the youngest player to play in a World Cup final.Pelé went on to win two more World Cups with Brazil in 1962 and 1970.The 1970 World Cup in Mexico is particularly notable, as Brazil’s team, featuring Pelé, is often considered one of the greatest football teams in history. The star’s performance in this tournament solidified his legacy, as he scored crucial goals and provided assists, showcasing his all-around brilliance.Pelé’s impact on football is immeasurable. He was named FIFA’s Player of the Century and received numerous accolades throughout his career, including the International Peace Award and the Laureus Lifetime Achievement Award.
