Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink has played down talk of a summer move for Real Madrid midfielder Rafael van der Vaart. "I cannot repeat this often enough, but at the end of May I am leaving Chelsea," he said in Sportweek. "I have not given any advice on new players, so I have not put the name of Rafael van der Vaart on a shortlist as has been suggested.

"He is a great player, but I have not given any names.

"That should be a job for my successor."
