Keep and rename. Obviously notable, based on the information in the Portuguese article, which contains a cite to his Globo.com obituary, entitled [http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/Noticias/Futebol/0,,MUL1493415-9825,00-EXJOGADOR+COMPARADO+A+PELE+MORRE+AOS+ANOS.html "Ex-jogador comparado a Pelé morre aos 57 anos"] ("Ex-player compared to Pele dies at 57"). --Arxiloxos (talk) 03:00, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
