Hiddink talks set to kickoff this week with Chelsea

Guus Hiddink is ready to open talks with Chelsea.

The Mail on Sunday says Chelsea's restructuring after the Carlo Ancelotti era will gather pace this week with Hiddink expected to enter full negotiations for his return as Chelsea manager.

Chelsea chief executive Ron Gourlay has said he wants to clear up the managerial situation in the next fortnight.

Although Andre Villa Boas - the former assistant at Chelsea and Porto coach who has won the league title in Portugal and the Europa League last season - remains a candidate, Hiddink is still expected to join once the Turkey FA allow negotiations to begin.
