Pelé, 82, was admitted to a hospital in Sao Paolo on Tuesday to reassess his cancer treatment and was later said to have suffered a respiratory infection.
In September 2021, he had a tumour removed from his colon and since then, has been receiving regular hospital treatment.
Pelé thanked his supporters via an Instagram post on Thursday stating that he was at the hospital for a “monthly visit”.
Fans at the Lusail Stadium, during Brazil's match against Cameroon, held a banner featuring the star player along with a message saying: “Pelé, Get Well Soon.”
