Several Brazilian football fans spent the night waiting in line to attend the wake of Pelé, who passed away last Thursday at the age of 82. FIFA president Gianni Infantino arrived at this historic moment.
Infantino arrived alongside Alejandro Domínguez, president of Conmebol, at Vila Belmiro where the wake for Pelé will take place. A massive influx of 'torcedores' and admirers of the player considered by many as the greatest footballer in history is expected.
It was reported that two white tents were set up on the Santos stadium field to receive thousands of fans, friends, family, and authorities.
Remember that on the day O'Rei passed away, Infantino expressed his condolences and through an official statement, announced that the Brazilian legend "achieved immortality long ago".
