Apparently he's not at all well. Heart attack and is currently in a coma. Not looking good for him.

he is 88 though ........ don't suppose he knows too much about it so it ain't a bad way to go

He's still better than Naismith even now.

Sad news. One of the greats. People who saw him say he was more of a complete player than Pele or Maradona. Either way hope he recovers

One of the all time greatest players - before even my time, but my late Dad used to talk about him.

Very sad to hear he didn't pull through. Hopefully the World Cup will do something to honour him.

RIP Don Alfredo.

Fuleco · July 7, 2014

Best player never to play at a World Cup?

Wonder what he's thinking here?

RIP

Tim Vickery is fantastic in his south American coverage. Nice blog by him on the man here
