Real Madrid are mourning the passing of Felix Perez Alvarez who is regarded as Real longest-serving registered fan.

He was 99.

According to the club's official website, Alvarez has supported the club since 1923 and remained a paying member for the next 86 years.

He witnessed Real win 31 league titles and nine European Cups.

Alvarez, who died of natual causes, was awarded a gold insignia in 1992 as a reward for his loyalty.
