eshuffle expected this week, media said.

Mr Hagiuda is a member of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's largest faction, which was previously led by former prime minister Shinzo Abe, who was shot and killed last month. The reshuffle, earlier than previously expected, comes as Mr Kishida's administration faces increasing public scrutiny on the relationship between the Unification Church religious group and ruling party lawmakers, including Mr Abe.

Mr Kishida, who is facing his lowest support levels since taking office in October, is also expected to keep Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki and Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi, the Nikkei newspaper said late on Monday. It also did not say where it got the information.
