World Cup: Sale of Pelé's legendary jersey fetches $4.9 million

Pelé's jersey, which he wore during the 1958 World Cup final, was sold for $4.9 million, making it one of the most expensive football memorabilia pieces ever sold by Sotheby's. Pelé, who was 17 years old at the time, wore this shirt in the match where Brazil defeated Sweden 5-2, scoring two goals and securing Brazil's first World Cup title. After the game, he gifted the jersey to a teammate, and it remained in his family's possession before being displayed in a museum and then sold at auction in 2004. This jersey is the second most expensive jersey sold at auction, after Maradona's 1986 England match shirt, which sold for $9.3 million.
