Option 4 : Pele

The correct answer is Pele.

  • Pele
    • He burst onto the world soccer scene at age 16, excelling both for club team Santos and the Brazilian national side.
    • By the end of his career, Pele had won three FIFA World Cups with Brazil, the most wins in the World Cup by any player. Hence, Option 4 is correct.
    • His first World Cup win came in Sweden in 1958, a tournament in which the phenom played an instrumental role.
    • He provided an assist for a goal in his only first-round-match appearance, before scoring the only goal in a quarterfinal victory over Wales. He scored a hat-trick in the semi-final victory against France, before netting a brace in the 5-2 final over the hosts.
    • He would earn his second trophy in the very next tournament, in Chile in 1962, although his contributions would be much more limited. After scoring and assisting in Brazil's 2-0 opening win against Mexico, Pelé would injure himself in the very next match and miss the remainder of the tournament. But Brazil would continue down the path upon which they'd been set by their talisman in claiming a second straight cup, the last nation to do so and one of only two ever.
    • His third and final triumph came in 1970, returning to World Cup play after vowing to never play in the competition again in the wake of the brutally targeted tackling he suffered throughout the 1966 tournament. 

  • The 2022 FIFA World Cup
    • It is scheduled to be the 22nd running of the FIFA World Cup competition, the quadrennial international men's football championship contested by the national teams of the member associations of FIFA. It is scheduled to take place in Qatar from 21 November to 18 December 2022.
