Clovis Fernandes, one of the world's most famous football supporters, has died, according to reports in Brazil.

Fernandes, also known as 'Gaucho da Copa', was the Brazilian national team's most famous fan, attending more than 150 of the team's matches in over 60 different countries and seven different World Cup finals.

He gained further popularity when an image of him was shared widely on social media following Brazil's 7-1 defeat to Germany in the semi-finals of last year's World Cup.
