Abedi Pele —the committed king of Africa
DAKAR. Jan 22: Africa's Pele is ready to assume a king's mantle in the continent's assault on the po
wer bases of world soccer, reports Reuter.
"I believe Africa should have four, not Just three, nations in the World Cup finals. But to achieve that we have to go out and prove we are worth it.' African player-of-the-year Abed I Pele said.
"I know that with the retirement of Roger Milla I'm regarded as the top player and the man to lead Africa forward."
As captain of favourites Ghana, the 29-year-o)d Pele is the most sought-after star at the African Nations Cup finals where the Ghanaians have reached the semifinals
It is a role he has taken in his elegant stride and he clearly relishes the opportunity to hold court to the many visiting European. Brazilian and Australian observers.
"I don't feel any pressure." he said. "I know a lot is ex-' pected of me. but I have prepared hard for these African finals. I'm at my top level and it helps me to think of Diego Maradona in 1986 at the World Cup finals."
"He was under great pressure there but he did ex tremely well. I want to do the same here for Ghana. We want Jo express ourselves and to show we can be very successful."
Born Abedi Ayew, this goalscoring forward with a magical left foot, deft skills and blinding pate was dubbed Pele by his friends and family after displaying his talent In street football in Ghana.
"We used to play anywhere and with anything." he said
‘We would take our family's socks and roil them together and make a ball. Or stuff a pair of socks with paper ... anything would do just to play football."
"It's a great thing in Ghana and everyone loves football. That's why if you go there now you will find so many wonderful players. It's the same all over Africa. I know that all the great players now are going to come from Africa".
Pele's progress from supremeiy-talented street urchin to International star came only after a painful struggle with transfers through several professional clubs from Qatar to Zurich before he settled at Olympique Marseille.
Even there, it was not easy at first. He was loaned out to inferior clubs, treated badly and only taken seriously when he scored so many goals he could not be ignored.
"Everyone In Africa now wants to be like Abedi Pele." he said. "I hope it's going to be easier for them. I have Iiad bad times ... racial abuse, bad treatment and some very wrong decisions- But I've never given up. I have moral courage and strength and that has helped me".
Pele particularly remembers refusing to return to Zurich, where he had been lodged .in a hotel room "with no bathroom or proper furniture" and expected to travel to training 'and back without expenses.
"It was very bad for me. I had to jump on and off buses. and trajns without paying. I hadn't got enough money. They treated me wrongly and so I left "
But lame finally arrived In a European Cup quarter-final against AC Milan in Italy last year when he performed with such skill and panache that he became a European star.
'People remember that, but forget the years it took me to get there. Now I have the chance to do something good for African soccer. I fell great responsibility for My Ghana team."
"But of course I’m a professional and like all the professionals playing here I'm worried about Injures. Some of the tackling is very bad and I know Marseille would not be happy if I was hurt."
Pele showed few signs of fear In Ghana's opening fixtures and looked set to establish himself as the tournament's hero as the "Black Stars" delivered the skills which have earned them descriptions as the Brazil of Africa.
But for Pele, victory tn the African Nations Cup Is not the only goal.
He wants to see African football recognised throughout the world as of a quality equal to European or South American soccer and he be lieves Morocco's bid for the 199^ World Cup finals should be taken very seriously.
"That is more Important than anything else," he said.
"People don't believe we can organise anything In Africa, but that's changing. To organise the World Cup would be a very big achievement and everything else would then fol-low."
