Chelsea Doctor Eva Carneiro Quits After Feud With Mourinho

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.
