FIFA plans to ask every country in the world to name a stadium in honour of the late football legend Pele.

FIFA president, Gianni Infantino who is in Sao Paulo in Brazil for Pele’s funeral, told local reporters: “We’re going to ask every country in the world to name one of their football stadiums with the name of Pele.”
