The forward started the season with Chelsea, making 14 appearances before leaving for Bundesliga club Wolfsburg.

A player must make at least five appearances to be eligible for a medal and even when Schurrle has done that, he didn't expect to be given a medal before Mourinho sent him an invitaton.

"I didn't know that I'd get a medal when I didn't play most of the second half of the season," Schurrel said in an interview with BBC World Service's World Football programme.

"Jose Mourinho sent me a text to say that I'd get a medal and he asked me to come to the last game. That was very nice for me."
