Torino part ways with manager Vanoli

Torino have parted ways with manager Paolo Vanoli, who had one year left on his contract, the Serie A club said on Thursday.

Vanoli was appointed a year ago but after Torino finished last season in 11th place, well away from the relegation battle but never in the mix for European qualification, the club have decided the time is right to make a change.

According to Italian media reports, former Lazio manager Marco Baroni is the likely replacement for 52-year-old Vanoli.
