Donald Trump has bypassed names like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo by naming the late legend, Pele, as his favorite footballer of all time.
The US president was present when Chelsea defeated European champions PSG to win the Club World Cup on Sunday night.
Trump's deep passion for sports has been documented during his two terms in the White House, with the Republican leader being a self-proclaimed fan of golf, American football, baseball and even WWE.
But before the game in New Jersey, Trump was asked about his personal choice for the greatest of all time.
" Many years ago, when I was young, they brought a player named Pele to play in the United States.
He played for a team called the New York Cosmos and Steve Ross, a friend of mine, was the inspiration behind that. This place was packed. It was an earlier version of this stadium here at the Meadowlands and it was Pele.
I don't want to sound too old-fashioned, but that was a long time ago. I was a young boy and I came to watch Pele and he was fantastic, so I'll say maybe I'll be a little more traditional.
"That's like saying Babe Ruth, but I would say Pele was so great ," Trump said.
