Genoa (AP) – According to a report by Sport1, Bruno Labbadia will be the coach of the Italian first division football club CFC Genoa.
The 55-year-old is the successor to Andrei Shevchenko, who was recently on leave, at Serie A relegation candidates. Labbadia has been the favorite for the job in Genoa for days. According to Sport1, he will have a contract until the summer of 2024. The penultimate table had not yet been confirmed on Tuesday morning.
The long-time Bundesliga professional has been without a job for almost a year since his separation from Hertha BSC in January 2021. He had also previously coached Bayer Leverkusen, Hamburger SV, VfB Stuttgart and VfL Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.
Labbadia was born in Darmstadt as the son of Italian guest workers and speaks Italian.
