Chelsea don’t only have a lot of Brazilian players they also have a Brazilian masseuse who is greatly loved at the club. 

Manoel Marcelo Ribeiro has been at the club since 2009 and knows some great stories that have never made it on to the back pages. He reveals how Jose Mourinho also has a playful side.

“There was this time at a conference where he took these water pistols and soaked everyone in the hotel,” chuckled Ribeiro.

Ribeiro said he travelled to England to improve his English and discovered his profession by chance in 2004. He worked for Fulham and West Ham before joining Chelsea. He now has one final wish.

“I live a dream, my family is well established in London. But I still one day imagine working in the Brazilian national team.”
