Pele says he used to support Liverpool - but now is a fan of Manchester United!
And the former Brazil striker, who Manchester United tried to sign in the Sixties,
believes the Barclays Premier
League is the best spectacle in the world.
"I have always liked English teams," the 68-year-old told
Sport magazine. "In the 1970s ad 80s I was a
Liverpool fan. I don't know why
especially, perhaps because they were the top team back then.
"In the last 10 or 15 years I have enjoyed following
Manchester United the most. They
play the game the right way and, in Brazil, Manchester United are far and away the most
popular team.
"The Premier League is the
most exciting league to watch in the world, there's no doubt about
that at all."
