Mourinho medal makes a mint

A Premier League winner's medal presented to former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho sold for £21,600 at auction today.

Mourinho threw his medal and blazer into the stand at Stamford Bridge after his side beat Manchester United 3-0 to win the 2005/06 title.

It was sold to an unnamed telephone bidder at a sporting memorabilia sale at Bonhams Auctioneers in Chester today.

But a signed McLaren team jacket which belonged to Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton was withdrawn from sale after it failed to reach its reserve price.

Hamilton signed the jacket and gave it to a pregnant woman who won a competition to meet him.

The jacket was expected to fetch between £8,000 and £10,000.
