Chelsea star, Ramires has expressed his joy to Chelsea fans and reassured the football community that he is recovering well from the illness that kept him out of Sunday’s Premier League title-clinching win over Crystal Palace.

The Brazilian was named in Jose Mourinho’s starting XI for the match at Stamford Bridge but fell ill in the warm-up and was replaced by Juan Cuadrado.

The 28-year-old was rushed to hospital as the Blues celebrated their first Premier League title in five years, but he has already been discharged and returned home.

He posted his message on his Instagram page:

“Hello guys! As you saw, I was very sick yesterday minutes before the match because of a renal complication, but I’m well and home with my family.

Thank God it was nothing serious and I will be fully recovered in a few weeks. Thank you to all that sent me messages and were with me.

I would like to thank the Chelsea’s medical team for the exceptional job.

I was sad not to be part of the party on the pitch, but very pleased with the title, the only English title I had left to concur. Congratulations Chelsea!”
