dismissal, Chelsea say they have not received any
legal documents from Eva Carneiro.
Chelsea have not received any legal paperwork amid reports
Eva Carneiro is to sue to the club for constructive dismissal.
Reports in the British media stated Chelsea had been served
legal papers by their former team doctor that will trigger a public
employment tribunal.
Carneiro was removed from first-team matchday duties in
August after she and physio John Fearn received criticism from
manager Jose Mourinho for treating Eden Hazard.
Their decision left Chelsea temporarily down to nine men in their
2-2 draw with Swansea on August 8.
Mourinho was cleared by the Football Association in September
of using sexist language towards Carneiro - who subsequently
left Chelsea following her demotion - during the touchline row
against Swansea, leading the doctor to question the governing
body's disciplinary process.
Former Real Madrid and Inter coach Mourinho said he was not
aware of the reported latest development in the saga when
asked about it at Friday's media conference before a Chelsea
spokesman interjected.
The club official said: "I'm not aware we have received any
paperwork so we will keep to our stance that it is an internal
staffing matter."
