Shevchenko at risk of being dismissed by Genoa

Andriy Shevchenko’s future is hanging in the balance as Genoa are considering dismissing the Ukrainian coach.

The Rossoblu suffered a painful 1-0 home loss to Spezia tonight, leaving them stuck 19th in the Serie A table after 21 games, one point behind Cagliari, who have a game in hand. The Ukrainian coach was not even on the sidelines for this match, having tested positive for COVID earlier in the week.

As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, Shevchenko’s position as head coach is now at risk, with Genoa considering dismissing the 45-year-old.

Shevchenko has only picked up three points since joining the club at the beginning of November, stemming from three draws. He has failed to inject some life into the Ligurian club, who now seem destined for relegation this campaign.

The 45-year-old coach was previously in charge of the Ukrainian national team and he guided the team to the quarter-finals of Euro 2020 last summer.
