Genoa parted ways with Patrick Vieira after a run of poor results and considered several candidates for the job, but De Rossi was ultimately chosen as the man to turn the team's fortunes around.
In his coaching career, De Rossi has managed SPAL and AS Roma, but has yet to stay at any club for more than a single season.
At the moment, Genoa sit 18th in Serie A with just 6 points and 16 goals conceded after 10 matchdays.
