Brazilian Pele To Auction World Cup Memorabilia

Brazilian Legend Pele has taken s bold step as a special replica World Cup trophy presented to him has already fetched £395,000 at an auction of his
personal memorabilia.
Two of the 75-year old's three World Cup winners' medals also went for auction, selling for well over their estimated price and eventually going for a collective £340,000.
However, the trophy was the most expensive individual lot, with Swiss watchmaking giant Hublot making the final bid for an item which had been expected to fetch between £281,000 and £450,000.
Pele's medal from his first World Cup triumph in 1958, when he was just a teenager, sold for £200,000 - way over the estimated price of £70,000-140,000.
