<p>French radio station RMC Sport said the 78-year-old had a “crisis of tetany” (involuntary muscle cramps) as well as a fever, which resulted in him being kept in for observation.</p>
<p>Press Association Sport has approached representatives of the Brazilian three-time World Cup winner for comment.</p>

<p>Pele has struggled with health issues in recent years, pictured using a cane to aid his walking due to problematic hips and knees as well as suffering from a serious urinary tract infection.</p>
<p>The former striker pulled out of the opening ceremony of the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro due to unspecified health reasons.</p>
<p>Pele arrived at the draw for the 2018 World Cup using a wheelchair. During January last year, he was also unable to attend a tribute dinner held in his honour by the Football Writers’ Association in London.</p>

<p>&mdash; Kylian Mbappé (@KMbappe) <a href="https://twitter.com/KMbappe/status/1113178102203547650?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 2, 2019</a></p></blockquote>

<p>The Brazilian, regarded as the world’s greatest player, had been able to travel to France earlier this week to meet with Mbappe as part of his ambassador role for a Swiss luxury watch brand.</p>
<p>Mbappe was one of the stars of Les Bleus’ 2018 success in Russia, and followed Pele in becoming the second teenager to score in a World Cup final as Croatia were beaten 4-2.</p>
<p>Pele, part of the 1970 Brazil World Cup winning squad, feels there is yet more to come from the 20-year-old Paris St Germain forward.</p>
<p><em>“He is really fast, has the ability to think quickly, change his gesture at the last minute. This is something which challenges us all,”</em> Pele said to RMC Sport on Tuesday.</p>
<p><em>“Each player has his speciality, his own characteristic and he is very fast in his decision-making, it is one of his strong points.”</em></p>
