Chelsea doctor Eva Carneiro has left the club, six weeks on from her highly-publicised dispute with manager Jose Mourinho.
Mourinho
had called the club’s medical staff “impulsive and naive” for entering
the pitch late on in the opening day 2-2 draw with Swansea.
Carneiro
and physio Jon Fearn treated Eden Hazard with minutes remaining of the
game, leaving the Blues temporarily down to 10 men.
Carneiro was
subsequently removed from her position on the Chelsea bench during
matches and told to instead work with the players at the Cobham training
ground.
But the doctor is believed to have stayed away from the
club since the incident on August 8 and posted a message of thanks to
well wishers on Facebook two days after the game.
The Football Association are also reviewing complaints that Mourinho used abusive or sexist language towards Carneiro.
