Guus Hiddink to make decision about future after Russian Cup final – Football news
Anzhi Makhachkala head coach, Guus Hiddink, has stressed that he is not thinking about leaving the Dagestani club at the moment and confirmed that he will make a decision after the Russian Cup final against CSKA Moscow at Terek Stadium (Grozny) next month.
“We had a very difficult season and I think we have achieved some excellent results. It gives me great pleasure coaching Anzhi. I want to continue working here for as long as I have strength. Right now I am focused on the Russian Cup final, and then maybe
you can talk about my future,” the KNVB Cup winner was quoted as saying.
News in Russian media have linked Hiddink with a move to a host of top European clubs, with the likes of Real Madrid and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 coach.
The Madrid-based club wants to re-appoint the 66-year-old after partying company with Chelsea bound Jose Mourinho while the Merseyside club wants to sign Hiddink following the possible departure of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes to Manchester United.
Anzhi will play in the domestic cup final against the Moscow-based club, having defeated Dynamo Moscow, Zenit St. Petersburg and Krylia Sovetov Samara before progressing to the round-of-16 after defeating FC Ural on penalty shoot-outs.
The Makhachkala-based club, meanwhile, have conceded just once and scored four goals ever since they played their first match of the cup tournament against Ural back in September.
There is little arguing to the statement that the Wild-division were not least effective on the European front. Anzhi managed to defeat all their group stage opponents including http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 FC, Young Boys and Udinese after winning the playoff round against
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/AZ-c38571 Alkmaar.
Hiddink’s men went on to progress to the round-of-16 after winning 4-2 against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hannover-96-c39492 on aggregate. However, they find it difficult to reach the quarter-finals of the European tournament following their narrow 0-1 defeat against Newcastle United.
Hiddink credited his entire side after a fantastic season in which they managed to claim bronze medal in the domestic championship and reach the cup final.
