Hiddink 'future decided next week'
Tuesday 12 January, 2010
Guus Hiddink’s agent confirms his “future will be decided” next week, but denies there is already a deal with Juventus.
The Russia Coach is the hot favourite to take over from Ciro Ferrara, possibly even in the next couple of days if Juve lose Wednesday’s Coppa Italia tie with Napoli.
“Before anything else, we need to meet with the Russian Federation and until that moment we will not negotiate with anyone else,” agent Van N’yuvenhyojzen told 'Sport Express.’
“The meeting should be before the next of the week or at most during the next and only then will his future be decided. Nothing is decided yet.”
Many newspapers suggest a deal is in place with Juventus, but Hiddink’s representative insists that is not the case.
“At the moment there has been no contact with the Bianconeri. I don’t know how these stories come out that Hiddink wants to free himself from the Russian Federation to join Juventus.”
