'I didn't know that?' - ex-Chelsea star Malouda finds out he's been sacked by FC Zurich... on Twitter!

The 38-year-old joined Swiss side FC Zurich as part of the coaching staff on February, taking charge of training attackers and youngsters in the first-team.

But less than two months into the job, the capital club have decided to remove the France international midfielder and winger from his duties with the club.
