Andriy Shevchenko risks dismissal from Genoa after just two months, with reports the club has approached ex-Roma boss Rudi Garcia.
There have already been multiple suggestions in the Italian media that the coach could be fired over the next few days.
His final game in charge could be tomorrow evening in the Coppa Italia Round of 16 fixture against his old club Milan at San Siro.
After replacing Davide Ballardini on November 7, Sheva has overseen one win, three draws and six defeats in all competition.
The 1-0 home defeat to fellow strugglers Spezia was a heavy blow and prompted Genoa owners 777 Partners to look elsewhere.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, their target is former Roma coach Garcia, who is currently a free agent after leaving Olympique Lyonnais in bitter circumstances in May 2021.
Before that, he had also worked at Olympique Marseille, while he was on the Roma bench from July 2013 to January 2016.
In recent months, the French-Spanish tactician had been linked with Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle United and Everton.
