Former Chelsea doctor Eva Carneiro drags Mourinho to court
Reports emerged on Monday that former Chelsea doctor Eva Carneiro plans to sue Jose Mourinho over his role in her departure from the club.
eva-carneiro-swag-wxe2ydb-tileMourinho criticised Carneiro after she and physiotherapist Jon Fearn ran onto the pitch to treat Eden Hazard during Chelsea’s 2-2 draw with Swansea City on the season’s opening day, which temporarily left them with nine players, and she was subsequently removed from first-team duties.
Mourinho was hit with a one-match stadium ban and a £40,000 ($61,680, 56,000 euros) fine, on Monday, after admitting to a charge of misconduct.
Mourinho’s assistant Silvino Louro was also banished from the touchline during the game at Upton Park, but the FA withdrew a formal charge of improper conduct against him and “reminded him of his responsibilities”.
Chelsea host Dynamo Kiev in the Champions League on Wednesday, when Mourinho will be in the dug-out as the FA’s jurisdiction does not extend to European competitions.
