Arsenal legend Thierry Henry is already fighting for his job at AS Monaco.

The Mirror says Henry is expected to lose his job in the Principality, following a wretched start to his managerial career.

Henry will be told in the next 48 hours that he is surplus to requirements with former boss Leonardo Jardim in line for a shock return.

Jardim was axed in October to make way for the former Gunners' striker, but now it appears the club's owners are about to make an abrupt U-turn – and take him back to avoid the embarrassment of a drop into the second tier.

Monaco lie one place and one point off the bottom of Ligue 1 and their season has lurched from one problem to the next — with Henry unable to arrest the slide.
