Gone with the Flo

Chelsea's Florent Malouda has been linked with a move to Brazillian club Santos as his time in London appears to have as run its course.

The 32 year old has not made one appearance for the Blues this year and it appears that both he and the club are happy to part ways. The France winger enjoyed his best seasons in London when Carlo Ancelotti was at the helm, playing a pivotal role in the title winning team of 2009-2010.

Apparently, and this is what I've heard, Malouda's nickname in the France national team dressing room is the 'Horse' (or 'cheval' if you like) on account of his large...ahem. Chelsea will look to sell him during the January transfer window and Malouda is also linked with a return to former club Lyon.
