Pele’s coffin carried out of Santos’ stadium by soldiers ahead of funeral procession

Pele’s coffin was carried out of Santos’ stadium by soldiers on Tuesday, as Brazil bid farewell to its icon.

The football legend, regarded by many as the greatest player of all time, died on 29 December at the age of 82.

He had been lying in state at the stadium of his former club in Sao Paulo, and fans lined the streets to get into the ground and pay their respects.

The procession will move through the city and towards the Memorial Necropole Ecumenica, where he will be buried in a private ceremony.
