This auction is for a photograph of Pelé and Muhammad Ali - two of the biggest, most influential sporting icons in history. It has also been signed by Pelé.  

In 1977 Pelé played the final game of his professional career for New York Cosmos. Still considered the greatest player in the history of the game, ‘The King of Football’ scored 1281 goals in 1363 games and led Brazil to 3 World Cup wins. At the final whistle, as he brought down the curtain on his record-breaking career, Pelé was embraced by his old friend - the legendary Muhammad Ali. This emotionally charged moment was captured in the photo you see here, personally signed by Pelé. The photo captures two of the biggest, most influential sporting icons in history embracing - in a moment that only sport can provide.

This is an iconic gift for any sports fan. The item is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
