Her indoors pushing Hiddink to accept Chelsea offer: I miss London shopping, Guus!

Her indoors wants Guus Hiddink to quit his Turkey job and return to Chelsea - because she misses the shopping in London!

The London Evening Standard says Hiddink's partner, Liesbeth, is pushing him to make the return to London.

She tried to convince him to stay on as Chelsea boss two years ago because of her love of living in the capital but the former Real Madrid boss went back to coaching the Russia national team full-time.

Hiddink is in a similar quandary this time because he is still in charge of Turkey, yet he has promised he will leave his post if they lose against Belgium on June 3 because it means they won't be able to qualify for the Euro 2012 finals.

The 64-year-old is adamant he won't break his contract with the Turkish Football Association under any other circumstances, although his partner is setting her sights on living in London again.

Chelsea are willing to bide their time over the appointment and are expected to make a decision by the middle of next month, which will be well in advance of the start of pre-season on July 4.
