Hiddink not going to Chelsea
Chelsea have released a statement regarding the speculation that Guus Hiddink could be set to become the new Stamford Bridge boss. Hiddink has long been linked with a switch to Stamford Bridge after the departure of Jose Mourinho last month.
"Information that Mr Abramovich is preparing to, or already has, offered Gus Hiddink a management post at Chelsea is untrue," read a statement issued by the Russian's office - via Chelsea.
"On the contrary, Mr Abramovich is very pleased the Russian Football Union has offered to renew Mr Hiddink's contract until 2010.
"Thanks to Mr Hiddink the Russian national team has become more exciting and solid, giving hope for achieving serious success on both the European and international levels."
