Chelsea have sent Jose Mourinho replica versions of the Premier League and Capital One Cup trophies he won last season in a bid to repair their relationship with their former manager.
Mourinho was sacked by Chelsea for the second time on December 17, with the club languishing 16th in the table and just one point away from the relegation zone.
The decision came just seven months after the Portuguese lifted his third Premier League title with the club and four months after he signed a new four-year contract worth £30million.
Blues chairman Bruce Buck sent Mourinho a letter this week, thanking him for his efforts during his second spell while making it clear that he would always be welcome back at Stamford Bridge.
The replica trophies - which were also sent to first-team squad members and backroom staff employed during the successful 2014-15 campaign - were delivered to the former Real Madrid manager's west London home, where he still lives with his family.
Midfielder Cesc Fabregas took to Snapchat on Friday to share a photo of his replica trophies with his fans, captioning the picture 'finally here'.
