Pele thanks Kolkata, hopes to come back again

Kolkata: Brazilian football legend Pele thanked the City of Joy Kolkata here on Wednesday as he concluded his three-day trip here with plenty of memories. “I hope to come back again... Thank you Kolkata,” Pele said.

The three-time World Cup winner, fondly nicknamed the ‘Black Pearl’, is now headed to Delhi, spreading the message to “stay healthy” as he supported a cause for blood cancer patients.

Describing his trip as a memorable experience, Pele wrote on his Twitter handle, “The love that I have received has been beautiful, just like I remember from 38 years ago during my last trip here.

“I want to thank god for giving me the opportunity to travel this distance, for only the second trip of my life to India.”
