SAO PAULO (Reuters) - Brazil great Pele has not been moved to palliative care, one of his daughters said on Sunday, downplaying reports that he was in end-of-life care after the 82-year-old was hospitalized last week to re-evaluate his treatment as he battles colon cancer.

One of the greatest footballers of all time, Pele had a tumour removed from his colon in September 2021 and has been receiving hospital care on a regular basis.

Pele's doctors have not confirmed that information and his daughter, Flavia Nascimento, said the report was wide of the mark. Flavia said that from time to time they adjust medication as there was no complete remission of his colon cancer. Another one of Pele's daughters, Kely, added in the interview that he had COVID-19 some three weeks ago, which led to the respiratory infection.
