Hiddink reaffirms plans to stick around at Chelsea

After Russia's victory over Azerbaijan, Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink reaffirmed plans to stay involved at Stamford Bridge.

Hiddink said: "I will finish my managerial duties with Chelsea at the end of the season but, yes, I may assist the club in a different way, of course if they asked me.

"I've said it many times before that I wouldn't have done it (combining the two jobs) at any other club but Chelsea are special.

"I don't do it for the money. I do it because I have a special relationship, a close bond with Roman (Abramovich). So if I stay with the club after May it would be more of an advisory, consulting role."
