For me, Pelé was the best player until today. He was the only one who managed to win three World Cups. Pelé was a symbol of all Brazil, he was an amazing player. He was an idol for all those who love football.
"Very sad event for all of us, we knew he was sick for a long time, he had cancer and in the last days he was in a serious condition. A very sad day for football. Now I can only see Messi on Pelé's level. Perhaps in the distant future Mbappé will be there as well. Mbappé has all the features to play like Pelé," said Barbosa.
