Hiddink To Decide On Chelsea Job

Guus Hiddink has been made an offer to be Chelsea boss, according to the Times and Sky Sports. Chelsea were granted permission today to talk to Hiddink about a short term permission that will see him take control of Chelsea until the end of the season, as well as remaining coach of the Russian national team.

Hiddink has stated that he is not prepared to walk away from the Russian job mid-campaign, and previously held the job of Australian coach whilst managing PSV.

There is not much chance of Hiddink being in place for the FA cup game against Watford, so Ray Wilkins will remain temporarily in charge of first team affairs. But an answer is expected in the next few days.
