Pele is a soccer legend that, maybe, the new generations will not know. He is now 80 years old and his retirement from professional soccer was on October 1977. Many years after, it is still said that he was one of the best players ever, or the best one depending on who is the person asked.

The attacker is compared to legends from nowadays, as Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, or with others that marked an era after him, as Diego Armando Maradona. But as he played professionally many years ago in an era in which there were almost no recording of soccer, he remains unknown for almost a complete generation.

The biggest achievement of Pele is something that nobody could ever repeat in history: he won three World Cups with Brazil national team. That, puts him as an untouchable player, that everyone respects and value. But now Pele will be involved in Fortnite, one of the most popular video games in the world, played by teenagers and adolescents.

The Brazilian himself published a video on his Instagram account revealing his participation in the game. The characters will now be capable of doing the celebration of Pele, who after every goal scored jumped in the air and clenched his fist in the air. Something that he did uncountable times with Brazil, Santos and New York Cosmos and that will now permit him earning a fortune in a new and innovation sponsorship that will permit young generations knowing him.
