Pele had shares at Aberdeen registered in his name, it has emerged following the footballing icon's sad passing.
He was no stranger to the Scottish game, training at Kilmarnock's Rugby Park and Troon's Portland Park before a friendly with Scotland in 1966, with Troon FC paying tribute to him in the hours following his death as "certainly the greatest ever" to grace their turf. Now, it has emerged he also had a vested interest in Aberdeen, with fan Ally Begg sharing evidence he purchased shares in the club in September 2000.
