Messi sends thank you message to 100-year-old fan who has noted down every goal the Barcelona star has scored

The Argentina international, who recently won the Copa America, sent a video to a man that has chronicled his entire career

Lionel Messi sent a heartfelt thank you video to a 100-year-old fan that has spent years making a note of every goal scored by the Barcelona and Argentina star.

The fan, named Hernan, has made a note of each goal on paper, where he writes down the date, opponent and the number of goals scored by Messi on the given day.

Hernan's grandson revealed his grandfather's hobby on social media in an appeal to the Barcelona icon and the dedication to chronicling Messi's career has earned him a thank you message from the man himself.
