Open to UK cardholders, the sweepstakes will select one customer at random to become the owner of the NFT, which comes in the form of an animated digital football with Mourinho's signature on one of the panels.



Mastercard's first foray into the exploding NFT arena comes just a month after rival scheme Visa paid $150,000 to acquire CryptoPunk 7610, one of 10,000 unique digital collectible characters with proof of ownership stored on the Ethereum blockchain.
