Skysports has exclusively revealed that Guus Hiddink is currently in London where he is expected to hold talks over the vacant Chelsea job.
The Blues are hoping to appoint a successor to Jose Mourinho before Saturday’s Premier League game against Sunderland at Stamford Bridge, after sacking the Portuguese for a second time on Thursday.
Hiddink, 69, previously took caretaker charge of Chelsea in 2009 and guided the team to success in the FA Cup.

And the Dutchman, who left his role as Netherlands manager during their ill-fated European qualifying campaign, was yesterday immediately installed as the Sky Bet favourite to take over again.
Earlier on Friday, Hiddink’s former employers at Australian Football Federation pledged their support for his imminent takeover at Chelsea on social media, before swiftly taking it down
A website statement also said: “Guus Hiddink has taken temporary charge at struggling EPL giant Chelsea after the club announced they’d sacked coach Jose Mourinho overnight following the club’s disastrous run in the English Premier League.”
The article was later updated to say that Hiddink “is the leading candidate to become interim manager” of the Blues.
The well-travelled Dutchman managed Australia at the 2006 World Cup, helping the team reach the second round.
The official Socceroos Twitter feed announced: “Our former boss has taken charge at @ChelseaFC – Good luck Guus!”
The tweet was subsequently taken down.
