Arsenal has reportedly recruited Manoel Marcelo Ribeiro, Chelsea's esteemed sports massage therapist, to bolster their backroom team.

Ribeiro, who joined Chelsea in the summer of 2009 after stints with Fulham and West Ham, is set to transition to Arsenal, according to Matt Law of the Daily Telegraph.

During his tenure at Chelsea, Ribeiro earned high regard for his work with managers such as Jose Mourinho, Rafael Benitez, and Antonio Conte. However, he will not have the chance to collaborate with new Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca.

Ribeiro will join Mikel Arteta's team later this month as they commence their pre-season preparations for another Premier League title challenge.

This move follows a series of changes at Chelsea, including the recent departures of academy directors Neil Bath and Jim Fraser.
