Wolverhampton pub near Molineux set to host Premier League trophy
Football fans will be able to get up close and personal to the Premier League trophy when it visits a pub near Molineux this weekend.
The famous trophy will be on show in The Leaping Wolf pub on Waterloo Road, near Wolves' home ground, on Sunday from 12pm to 4pm.
The visit will be while Wolves are playing West Ham away in London.
Visitors to the Wolverhampton pub will have a chance to have a photograph with the glittering prize, won by Manchester City last season.
The trophy was cast by the Crown Jewellers, with the main body of the trophy is made from solid sterling silver while its two crowns are cast from 24-carat silver-gilt.
The base of the trophy made from Malachite, a semi-precious stone found in Africa, and the design of it is based on the theme of 'The Three Lions of English Football'.
Two of the lions can be found above the handles on either side of the trophy, with the third lion said to be the captain that lifts it at the end of the season.
Kelly Ward, management partner at the pub, said: "Being so close to the Molineux, we have a huge footballing fanbase visiting us weekly. So, to have the Premier League trophy on-show this Sunday is really exciting!"
