Active to Personal Passive - what do we do with "may be"?

If I wanted to turn this sentence written in the active voice:

  • People believe he may be fired

to one with Personal passive structure, how should it end?

He is believed to ... 1) be likely fired; 2) may be fired;

or 3) Should the whole sentence should be "He is expected to be fired".

Please advise which one is grammatically correct and natural, if none - I would appreciate suggestions. Thank you!
