Florent Malouda claims he has been banished from training with the Chelsea first team for the remainder of his Stamford Bridge career.

Winger Malouda posted a picture of the headquarters of the Under-21 squad, along with the message: "This is where I'll train for my last season with the blues !!!"

The 32-year-old, who is in the final year of his contract, was left out of Chelsea's squad for their Champions League group stage campaign but is included in the Premier League squad.
