GUUS HIDDINK TO BE APPOINTED AS INTERIM MANAGER BY CHELSEA

Following Jose Mourinho’s dismissal as Chelsea manager, the club is set to turn to Guus Hiddink again, to take over until the end of the season.

Mourinho was sacked on Thursday, just seven months after leading the Blues to the Premier League title.

The 69-year-old Dutchman arrived Stamford Bridge in February 2009, following the sack of Luiz Felipe Scolari, after seven months in charge. During that time, he lost only once in the Premier League and led the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Hiddink however achieved success in the FA Cup, defeating Everton in the final. He arrives to a tougher task this time around, with Chelsea sitting in 16th place in the league, one point above relegation places
