Pele, Sotheby’s, Brazil
2 June 2026
Pele’s shirt from the 1958 World Cup final is going to auction with an estimated value above $6 million. The jersey was worn when the 17-year-old scored twice in Brazil’s famous 5-2 win over Sweden.
Pele gave the shirt to team-mate Dida after the final, and it later passed through a museum collection before being sold privately. Sotheby’s expects it to challenge football’s most expensive memorabilia records this summer.
