Guus Hiddink has revealed that he didn't even come close to a move to Chelsea, despite speculation linking him with the job once Jose Mourinho left. Hiddink signed a new deal with Russia recently.
Hiddink said: "That was not even close. Roman asked me to help renovate Russian football, I still am.
"It would not be appropriate to ask me for Russia and then a few months later ask me for the Chelsea job. We never talked about that.
"It's England [the media]. They're commenting every day on everything. It's the position of a man who has hardly lost one game.
"Maybe he's looking a little bit down but you can't analyse on appearance. Look at what Chelsea have done this season."
