MILAN (Reuters) - Former Italy coach Cesare Prandelli replaced Ivan Juric as coach of struggling Genoa on Friday after the Croat was fired by the Serie A club for the third time in his career, this time after only two months in charge.

Juric, fired twice by the club last year, was dismissed again after Genoa were knocked out of the Coppa Italia on Thursday by third tier side Virtus Entella on penalties following a 3-3 draw.
