REJA IN LAZIO TALKS
Ballardini - under pressure.
Edy Reja has confirmed he is in talks with Lazio to replace under-fire coach Davide Ballardini.
Former Napoli boss Reja is under contract with Hajduk Split until June 2011 but is trying to sever ties with the club.
"We are negotiating," Reja said to calciomercato.com.
"The situation is not easy as there are problems that need to be solved.
"I believe everything could be resolved (with Hajduk Split) briefly but it will not be easy."
Ballardini has been under immense pressure following last weekend's 1-0 defeat by Catania that dropped Lazio to 18th place.
The Biancoceleste, who were eliminated from the Europa League before the winter break and were knocked out of the Coppa Italia last month, have won four and lost nine of their 23 games this season under Ballardini.
He replaced Delio Rossi last summer.
