ENGLAND may struggle to get hold of the World Cup this year but you could get your hands on the next best thing.
Hansons Auctioneers are holding a special World Cup sale, including a replica version of the classic trophy.
The original, by Italian artist Silvio Gazzaniga, will be heading to South America but a replica is expected to fetch between £100 and £150.
Other lots at the auction include a shirt worn at the 1966 semi-final belonging to the German player Franz Beckenbauer.
The shirt was discovered in a house in Derbyshire after being given to Sergeant Walter Turner as a thank you for keeping autograph hunters at bay.
The team, who went on to be beaten by England in the final, stayed at the The Peveril of the Peak Hotel.
The shirt is expected to fetch £5,000.
Auctioneer Charles Hanson said: "The football shirt is an important item of memorabilia. We feel it perhaps belongs in a museum."
The sale will take place on Monday, June 30. For more information phone 01283 733 988.
