A statement on the FFM's website confirmed Jonuz was removed from his post as a result of their poor Euro 2012 qualifying campaign.

''Following extensive discussions regarding results achieved in qualifying for the 2012 European Championship, a unanimous decision has been reached to remove Mirsad Jonuz from his position as the coach of the national team,'' said the statement.

The FFM added they will hold another meeting soon to find Jonuz's successor. Macedonia lie fifth in qualifying Group B with just four points following successive defeats to Republic of Ireland.
