Southampton are reportedly planning to axe their manager Ivan Juric at the end of the season.
The Saints are rooted to the bottom of the table and enduring one of the worst Premier League campaigns to date.
Southampton have managed to secure only nine points throughout the entire season, with just two wins and three draws from 27 games.
Juric was appointed as manager in late December on an 18-month contract following Russell Martin’s departure from the club.
Another potential exit could mean his second axing during a season after Roma sacked him in November having been in charge for just 12 games.
According to The Sun, the Saints have already chosen Sheffield Wednesday’s Danny Rohl as their next boss as the club prepares for life back in the Championship.

The Croatian has spent only two months at the club following his arrival in late December
Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl has been chosen as the ideal candidate to replace Juric, according to reports
Rohl has reportedly been a target since Martin’s exit in November but negotiations failed over compensation demands.
Sheffield Wednesday were also reportedly unwilling to let the German leave on the cheap following their successful start to the season.
Wednesday are sit in 13th place in the league table, seven points outside of the play-off spots.
Rohl has considerable experience despite his young age having worked at top European clubs such as Bayern Munich.
The 35-year-old also had a significant role in the Germany national team between 2021 and 2023.
Southampton have won just once in the Premier League since Juric was appointed as manager – a 2-1 victory over Ipswich in February.
Two days after his arrival, the Croatian said: ‘It will be a very tough job and I know that in history nobody stayed in the Premier League with this situation.
‘But I think there are a lot of good players here. I am optimistic.
‘I saw their mentality and it’s the first step to doing better. I think we can do something exceptional.’
