# Prankster hands Antonio Conte a signed Man United shirt

In quite an off turn on events, Chelsea manager Antonio Conte was handed a Manchester United shirt, signed by Jose Mourinho and with his name on the back during his press conference earlier today.

Conte, who was speaking to the press ahead of Chelsea’s FA Cup tie with Hull City on Friday, was given the shirt by a “journalist” from Italian comedy show Le Ienem.

The journalist in question, who was quickly escorted from the press conference moments later, appeared to show Conte a video on a tablet before handing th shirt to Conte, saying it was a “present from Jose Mourinho”.

To be fair to Conte, he handled the situation very well as Chelsea’s media staff quickly escorted the gentlemen in question out of the conference.
