里約奧運會開幕式上，眾人期待的球王貝利點燃火炬的畫面并未出現，不過在閉幕式上我們有望見到貝利的身影，據報道，巴西奧組委有意邀請貝利出席閉幕式，由他來執行降旗儀式，并將奧林匹克會旗交給下一屆主辦城市東京。

Olympic officials are hoping to welcome Pele back into the Rio 2024 Games. The world's most famous soccer player is to be invited to appear at the Olympic Closing Ceremony after missing the curtain-raiser through poor health.

巴西奧組委將邀請球王貝利出席里約奧運會閉幕式。這位全世界最負盛名的足球運動員此前因為健康原因未能出席開幕式。

Pele, 75, who won the World Cup three times with Brazil, has been walking with a cane and seeing doctors about his ailment.

現年75歲的貝利，曾率領巴西隊三次奪得世界杯冠軍，但如今已是一個手杵拐杖、身染微恙的老人。

But Rio officials hope he will be back to health by the time the Olympics close on August 21.

但巴西奧組委還是希望在8月21日奧運會閉幕時，貝利的健康條件能夠允許他出席。

不過，開賽以來，貝利一直密切關注奧運賽事，頻頻在個人社交賬戶發文，并表示自己正在繼續接受治療，希望能出席本月21日的奧運閉幕式。

貝利9日在社交網站推特上發文稱，“我正在繼續接受理療，并把精力集中在能夠參加8月21日的閉幕式上。我愛你們!”

貝利還發推文說，到目前為止，里約奧運是一場偉大的奧運會。巴西向世界展示了最好的一面。

Hopes that Pele will be well enough to be able to wave farewell to Olympians at the Closing Ceremony have been boosted by his revelation that he will be well enough to travel to Africa on business later this week.

貝利曾透露自己身體恢復得不錯，本周遲些時候可以去非洲處理公務，這樣看來貝利出席奧運會閉幕式揮手送別運動員的可能性很大。

After the Olympics he is due to visit England and Scotland next month. The newly-married Brazilian hero withdrew from lighting the Olympic Flame at the eleventh hour citing his medical needs.

奧運會后，他將于下月前往英格蘭和蘇格蘭。由于身體原因，這位新婚的巴西巨星在最后時刻退出了開幕式點火儀式。

Pele's spokesman Pepito Fornos said: 'He is walking with a cane. His doctor thought it best that he continues physiotherapy, that he rests and we hope that he will be able to appear at the closing ceremony.'

貝利的發言人佩比托?費爾諾斯說：“他現在走路都需要杵手杖。他的醫生認為他應該繼續接受理療，他也需要好好休息，我們都很希望他能出席閉幕式?！?/p>

One Olympic official said: 'If Pele's diary is clear on that day, of course he will be there and play a part. He is the most famous Brazilian in the world.'

一位奧委會官員說：“如果閉幕那天貝利條件允許，他當然會來參加儀式，他可是世界上最有名的巴西人了。”

Pele could be asked to lower the Olympic flag and present it to officials from Tokyo where the 2024 Olympics are destined. The Closing Ceremony, like the curtain-raiser, draws a billion-plus global TV audience as the host nation says goodbye to departing athletes.

貝利或許會承擔降下奧林匹克會旗并將其轉交給2024年東京奧運會工作人員的職責。和開幕式一樣，由主辦國送別運動員的閉幕儀式也會吸引全球十多億的觀眾收看。

They first met in an elevator in New York in 1980 and bumped into each other again in Sao Paolo years later.Pele married for the third time last month when he wed long time girlfriend Marcia Cibele Aoki, a 50-year-old businesswoman.

貝利上個月迎娶了50歲的商人瑪爾西亞-青木，他們交往已久，這也是貝利的第三次婚姻。

1980年他們在紐約的一個電梯里第一次相遇，幾年后又在圣保羅再次遇見。

He was previously married for 12 years to Rosemeri Cholbi, with whom he had three children and in 1994 he made singer Assiria Nascimento his wife. They had twin sons during their 14-year marriage but divorced in 2008.

他與第一任妻子羅塞梅麗?瑟爾比的婚姻長達12年，并且生育了三個孩子，1994年他與歌手阿西莉亞?納西門托結婚，他們的婚姻持續了14年并育有一對雙胞胎兒子，2008年兩人離婚。
