Pele: Long Live The King will air on discovery+, Eurosport, and BT Sport in the UK
Warner Bros. Discovery has announced that it will air a tribute to football icon Pele across all of its territories in Europe, Asia, and the Indian subcontinent.
Pele: Long Live The King, produced by Inverleigh, will include one 24 minute documentary, as well as ten short-form features. In the UK it will broadcast on discovery+, Eurosport, and BT Sport, following the completion of Warner Bros. Discovery’s joint venture with the latter. In total, it will reach over 50 territories around the world.
The tribute will premiere on Eurosport 1 on Wednesday 4 January at 8pm in the UK, with on-demand streaming from this time.
Pele, widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time, passed away last month. He is the only player to have won three World Cups, is the youngest player to have scored a World Cup hattrick, and his overall tally of 1,283 goals in 1,367 games including friendlies and exhibition matches is recognised as a Guinness World Record.
