Jose Mourinho has hit back in the ongoing row with the Spanish national team over the fitness of Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas, sardonically remarking that Sergio Ramos “is not a doctor”.

The two Chelsea players missed Spain’s Euro 2016 qualifier against Belarus and the subsequent friendly with Germany through injury. Fabregas’s situation prompted a back-and-forth that led the Spain coach, Vicente Del Bosque, to complain about a lack of “trust” and Real Madrid defender Ramos to question the pair’s commitment.

Fabregas was initially ruled out of both games, but then travelled to Madrid for a scan. The results showed his hamstring injury was not as serious as feared, but Del Bosque allowed him to return to Chelsea – accompanied by a few barbs.

Mourinho notoriously clashed with Ramos during their time together at Madrid and that was evident in his response. “Do you know Sergio Ramos personally?” he asked. “[He] is a fantastic football player, but he is not a doctor. My doctor and the doctor of the Spanish national team, they had the scans and they decided that the player was not in the condition to play. I am nobody – nobody – to go against it and I don’t think Sergio did a medicine masters in the last couple of years to understand about it.

“I trust my doctor 100 per cent. If Del Bosque doesn’t trust his doctor, that is his problem not my problem. I speak with my doctor and I believe in what my doctor tells me. No problem.

“[Vincent] Kompany played today for [Manchester] City, but he didn’t play for Belgium. He was injured. Has he a compromise with his national team? I think he has. He is the captain of Belgium. Did he ‘cheat’ by not playing against Wales to play today? I don’t think he did. So we all accept that he was injured.”
