REVEALED: Why Mourinho's move to Manchester United could be held up by Chelsea's trademark of his name

Jose Mourinho is finalising a move to Manchester United but an unlikely potential sticking point has emerged over the trademark of his name. The Portuguese's full name was registered with the Intellectual Property Office by Chelsea on both occasions he managed at Stamford Bridge - and United's Premier League rivals still hold those rights. On their official website, Chelsea are still selling are products with Mourinho's name on them (including the doll, inset).
lol
