VIDEO: Young fan adores Ivan Rakitic, hugs him ... and won't let go

Ivan Rakitic played a starring role in Barcelona's 3-1 victory over Granada on Saturday, scoring the opening goal and dictating play in midfield en route to the win.

As such, it was no surprise one young fan wanted to get up close and personal with the Barcelona star after the match. He did. But once he latched on, he was never going to let go.

It's important to have heroes as a youngster.
