Three-time World Cup winner Pele said he might consider returning to football after 19-year-old French forward Kylian Mbappe became only the second teenager in history to score in a World Cup final repeating the Brazil legend's feat.
"If Kylian keeps equaling my records like this I may have to dust my boots off again," 77-year-old Pele posted on Twitter.
If Kylian keeps equalling my records like this I may have to dust my boots off again... // Se o @KMbappe continuar a igualar os meus records assim, eu vou ter que tirar a poeira das minhas chuteiras novamente...#WorldCupFinal https://t.co/GYWfMxPn7p

Pele was 17 when he bagged a double in Brazil's 5-2 victory against hosts Sweden in the 1958 FIFA World Cup final while Paris Saint-Germain striker Mbappe added France's fourth, and his fourth of the tournament, as Les Bleus beat Croatia 4-2 in Moscow on Monday (AEST).
