Report: Hiddink To Return To The Premier League Next Year
The Mirror claims that Russia boss Guus Hiddink is considering a return to the Premier League, after acting as an interim manager at Chelsea last season.
Nov 15, 2009 1:08:41 AM
Hiddink rejuvenated the west London club after the sacking of Luiz Felipe Scolari, and went on to win the FA Cup during his five-month stint at Stamford Bridge.
The Dutchman has turned down an offer to extend his contract with the Russians as well as a proposal from PSV Eindhoven, and it is believed that the former Australia manager is paving the way to a return to English football.
"My future remains unclear and from November 18 I could be a free man," Hiddink is quoted as saying.
"It’s flattering that the Russians have given me the chance to sign a new contract and stay with them until 2012.
"It’s a clear signal that they want to carry on and organise everything in the future of the Russian game."
He added: "I don’t want to go through with the Russian offer at this stage.
"I’ve also been approached to join the elite board at PSV Eindhoven, but I’ve turned that down."
