    I don't see the deal why they're complaining about his move though. Maybe it's just me.

    How can he even compare himself to Pele, if he did that he wouldn't have left his home counrty so fast.

    Well, Pele did leave Santos for the New York Cosmos actually, but this was like two decades into his career and his peak was long gone at this point. I agree that if Pele was thrown so much money his way at this time he would've done the same.

    Eactly he didn't leave until he was declining as he would not be a hero anymore in his country's eyes so he left.

    I believe Pele retired before moving to New York.
