Brazil national team head coach, Carlo Ancelotti has named late football icon Pele as the greatest player of all time (GOAT).
Ancelotti believes Pele deserves the first place ahead of Inter Miami’s Lionel Messi and Al Nassr’s Cristiano Ronaldo.
Speaking recently to CONMEBOL, the Italian said (via BolaVIP): “I can’t say definitively because Pele belongs to a different generation.
“What Pele achieved in his career, on top of the World Cups he won, was something truly special.
“The others have been spectacular players. Starting with Ronaldo, whom I had the good fortune to coach, to Messi, whom I have seen, and all the others.
“But it is difficult to choose. Based on what he achieved in his career, I believe Pele deserves first place.”
