Guus Hiddink has confirmed he will leave his position as Russia coach when his contract expires in the summer.

• Nigeria claim Hiddink interest

Hiddink led Russia to Euro 2008 ahead of England, but they were beaten in a World Cup play-off match with Slovenia for this summer's tournament and he has since been linked with a number of jobs at both club and international level.

It was stated that Hiddink would not make any decision on his future until he held talks with new Russian federation president Sergei Fursenko, but he has now cleared the way to take another post.

"After a very pleasant conversation with the new federal president, it was decided that we will part ways after the expiration of my contract on June 30," he told De Telegraaf. "We decided this now in order to give the federation enough time to look for a successor."

Manchester City, Liverpool, Juventus, Turkey and Eredivisie side Heerenveen are all reported to have shown interest while Hiddink's representative recently claimed he would like to lead Nigeria in South Africa after the dismissal of Shaibu Amodu. There have also been suggestions he could be offered a role at Chelsea.

Liverpool.

mourinho?

I would'nt rule out MU. Ferguson isn't getting any younger.

wouldn't surprise me at all to see hiddink come to liverpool in the summer. just hope he's prepared to buy players with magic beans and by swapping training kit.

mourinho?

don't think liverpool is a big enough job for jose's ego any more, there's no money. he'd have to take a 50% pay cut on his inter salary and pay much higher income tax.

madrid, barca, united or portugal next for the self-adoring one. probably madrid.

Or hope he won't spend 18m of his Transfer Budget on a Right Back & the other 20m on an Italian who he virtually never plays. due to Injury or him " not being ready ".

Just think, if he doesn't do that & spends whatever his budget it a little wiser, you might have a better Season next Year.

Don't forget, Stevie has a long memory and a vivid imagination. Given the chance he and enough bandwidth, he could convince himself that Robbie Keane deal was a good one.

Theyll be paying in installments and on games played and trophys won (so youll save here) also Johnsons fee included writing off the debt that Pompey owed for Crouch.

Liverpool fans are only happy when theyve a disproportionate amount of money to spend as they are Britains biggest glory hunters.

hate being correct about coaches, first Bruce to New (I mean Sunderland) and Hiddink to Turkey. Next up Svenn again, this could be hard though - isnt' there a rule about only being able to coach two teams in one year?
