Brazilian football legend Pele, is expected to leave hospital on Saturday, after undergoing prostate surgery.
The Albert Einstein Hospital in Sao Paulo, on Friday released a statement, explaining that Pele was recuperating well after a transurethral resection of the prostate.
This is the second time within six months, that the 74-year-old has been hospitalized, but the hospital insisted no tumours were found after he was treated for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Pele, whose real name is Edson Arantes do Nascimento, was treated for kidney problems in early December.
