Pele 'very proud' to be involved with NY Cosmos

Brazilian great Pele admits he is proud to again be involved in helping promote soccer in the United States.

The sport's greatest ever player is acting as the honorary president of the reformed club who he played for back in the 1970s and is delighted to be doing what he can to push the Cosmos, and soccer in the US, forward.

"To come back with the Cosmos is fantastic," said Pele.

"I spent a lot of my life promoting soccer in the United States and I'm very proud to do it."
