At the age of 15, he signed with the Santos Football Club, where he rapidly established himself as a striker capable of leading the team in scoring. In the early years of his career with Santos, he was instrumental in guiding the squad to a number of championships, including the Campeonato Paulista (Sao Paulo State Championship) in 1958, 1959, 1960, and 1961.Pelé made his first appearance for the Brazilian national team in 1958, when he was 18 years old. He scored six goals during the competition, including two in the match that decided the winner of the 1958 World Cup between Brazil and Sweden. This was a significant contribution to Brazil's triumph. Pelé's status as a budding star in the world of soccer was solidified as a result of his performance here. Throughout his career, Pelé continued to be a force to be reckoned with in the sport and set a number of records, including the record for the most goals scored in a single year (91 in 1959), the record for the most goals scored in a single World Cup tournament (12 in 1958 and 1970), and the record for the most goals scored in a career (1,281). 1977 was the year he called it quits in the professional game, and 1998 was the year he was elected into the National Soccer Hall of Fame.
