Should a stadium in every country in the world be named after Pele?

That is the suggestion from FIFA president Gianni Infantino who think each nation should pay tribute to the Brazilian footballing legend who passed away on Sunday aged 82.

Cape Verde Islands became the first nation in the world to name their stadium after Pele, rebranding the 15,000-seater Estadio Nacional de Cabo Verde, located just outside the capital Praia, will become the Pele Stadium.

So should Scotland follow suit? And if so, would it be a good idea to rename a stadium in the Highlands?

Could the Caledonian Stadium or the Global Energy Stadium become known as Pele Park?

Or perhaps Clachnacuddin or Nairn County would fancy rebranding their homes in tribute to one of the best players of all time.
