Eva Carneiro has left her work as a doctor of football teams. The well-known medic departed Premier League club Chelsea following a very public incident when then-manager José Mourinho criticised her judgement during a league match. She has now decided to return to where she was born, Gibraltar.

Carneiro will start her new role on Thursday 31 March according to a report from the specialist sports clinic.

There is still an ongoing court case into what happened with her employment termination at Chelsea but in the British Overseas Territory they are welcoming her back with open arms: "Eva Carneiro, she's one of our own"
