Edson Arantes do Nascimento (23 October 1940 – 29 December 2022), better known by his nickname Pelé was a Brazilian professional footballer who played as a forward. Widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all time. In 1999, he was named Athlete of the Century by the International Olympic Committee and was included in the Time list of the 100 most important people of the 20th century. In 2000, Pelé was voted World Player of the Century by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS) and was one of the two joint winners of the FIFA Player of the Century. His 1,279 goals in 1,363 games, which includes friendlies, is recognized as a Guinness World Record.

Pelé began playing for Santos at age 15 and the Brazil national team at 16. During his international career, he won three FIFA World Cups: 1958, 1962, and 1970, the only player to do so and the youngest player to win a World Cup (17). With 77 goals in 92 games for Brazil, Pelé held the record as the national team’s top goalscorer for over fifty years. At club level, he is Santos’s all-time top goalscorer with 643 goals in 659 games. In a golden era for Santos, he led the club to the 1962 and 1963 Copa Libertadores, and to the 1962 and 1963 Intercontinental Cup. Credited with connecting the phrase “The Beautiful Game” with football, Pelé’s “electrifying play and penchant for spectacular goals” made him a star around the world, and his teams toured internationally to take full advantage of his popularity. During his playing days, Pelé was for a period the best-paid athlete in the world. After retiring in 1977, Pelé was a worldwide ambassador for football and made many acting and commercial ventures.

The collection features 288 stickers and cards with a 50-page softcover sticker album. The combination of self-adhesive peel-off stickers and cardboard cards is what makes Panini Mexico 70 unique. All the players and teams have been printed on thick cardboard cards which can be put into the album by using glue or scotch tape. Posters and flags are produced as self-adhesive stickers. Without any doubt, Panini Mexico 70 is by far the priciest and the most sought-after World Cup collection.
