Jose Mourinho Auctions Watch He Was Wearing at Manchester United, Unicef Gala

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho helped raise more than £30,000 for charity on Monday when he spontaneously auctioned off the watch he was wearing along with other items at the Red Devils' 17th annual United for Unicef charity gala dinner.

According to Alice McKeegan of the Manchester Evening News, the Special One attended the event with his players and auctioned off a collection of memorabilia "consisting of his signed, worn Adidas hoodie, training top and the scarf" he was holding at his unveiling as manager in the summer.

Mourinho added his watch to the auction as an extra, "last-minute" show of generosity, which the MEN captured:
