Born
Football and government, Brazil. Pelé, a three-time World Cup winner, served as Brazil's Extraordinary Minister for Sport from 1995 to 1998. His main legacy there is the 1998 "Pelé Law", which ended clubs' ownership of players' registrations after their contracts expired, giving Brazilian footballers free movement and pushing clubs to become more professional businesses.
