VIDEO: Steven Gerrard reveals Jose Mourinho gave him a touching keepsake that hangs in his house

Steven Gerrard at Chelsea is one of the great what-ifs of the Premier League era.

The former Liverpool captain almost joined the London side twice, but decided eventually that his heart was on Merseyside. It was then especially cruel luck that his best chance of winning a Premier League would vanish in an infamous slip against a Mourinho side in 2014. The Chelsea boss has previously spoken about how Gerrard is one of the few players he has major regrets about not working with at Chelsea or Inter Milan, and Gerrard has now revealed the close bond between the two men. Sitting down together for a joint interview on BT Sport this week, Gerrard reveals that he once received a letter from Mourinho after a charity game at Anfield and it was so moving that he decided to frame it and hang it on his wall. The former England captain explains that the letter  is now at the heart of his home it was so special.

"a very touching message and the letter is now in a frame, pride of place in the house. that's what it means to me. It was a nice touch which shows what he gives to players off the pitch and even players that have been a rival...he's still humble and a gentleman to write me a letter."
