Pele has pulled out of attending an event in London, but there are conflicting reports regarding the health of the Brazilian icon.
The Football Writers' Association (FWA) released a statement on Friday indicating Pele - due to appear at an event on Sunday - had been hospitalised after collapsing.
Pele was due to attend an event at the Cambridge Union on Monday but has withdrawn from that visit too.
An adviser to Pele told Brazilian media the 77-year-old - who used a walking frame in an appearance at the 2018 Carioca Football Championship earlier this week - pulled out of the trip to the United Kingdom to avoid fatigue.
