Torino president Urbano Cairo has confirmed they're in talks to secure coach Walter Mazzarri to a new deal.

Cairo has moved to ease the pressure mounting on Mazzarri.

“I haven't thought for one second about replacing him," he told Gazzetta dello Sport.

“I pursued him for many years. Only a month-and-half, two months ago, we were talking about a renewal.

“Of course, we will continue the talks soon and we will decide together, but it's something that will happen very soon."

Torino beat Brescia 4-0 win last weekend to end a run of six games without a win.
