London: Brazil’s legendary footballer Pele says no one in the history of the game has yet matched his record.
Pele in an interview with CNN says “for me Pele is the best and nobody has done more than Pele” .
The 70-year old said that modern-day footballers were not in the same class as stars from the past.
“Being champion of the world at 17 years old, won three World Cups, scored more than 1,208 goals – only him! Then until now, nobody did this… to me, Pele is the best,” he added.
He said that Beckenbauer, (Michel) Platini, (Eric) Cantona, Bobby Charlton, George Best, then come (Diego) Maradona, Zico played for 10 years.
Now the players play one year, two years, then disappear,” he added
