Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard reveals letter from Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is framed at his home

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has revealed that a touching letter from Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has been framed and has a pride of place at his home.
Mourinho wrote the letter for the then-Reds captain expressing his admiration for his performances and conduct during his time as Chelsea manager, report the Liverpool Echo.

The pair were sat side-by-side on BT Sport's Clare Balding Show when he revealed his respect for "gentleman" Mourinho.
He said: "It was after a charity match that we held at Anfield. John Terry, who was kind enough to make his way down and do his bit for charity, handed me a letter.
"He said 'open it it. It's a bit of a surprise for you.'

"When I got home I opened the letter and it was from this fella (Mourinho).
"It was a very touching message.
"The letter is now in a frame, in pride of place in my house, that's what it means to me - and it was a nice touch which shows what he gives to players off the pitch - even players who have been a rival and who have turned him down on two or three occasions!

"He's still humble enough and a gentleman to take the time to write me a letter."
Mourinho famously tried to sign Gerrard three times, but on each occasion the Anfield icon chose to stay loyal to his beloved Reds.
