Lautaro Martinez brought a smile to a young supporter’s face yesterday as he fights an illness in hospital.

El Toro turned up at the child’s bedside and gave him one of his shirts from his Racing Avellaneda days.

The forward and his girlfriend spoke to the boy, who is called Enzo, before dedicating him a message on social media.

“Here we are with Enzo in his most difficult moment,” Lautaro wrote on Instagram.

“Pleased to meet you and to share this moment with you. All my strength goes to you and your brothers. Fuerza Enzo.”
