Turkey willing to offer Gus Hiddink 7 million per annum
Turkish Football Federation is willing to sign a contract with Dutch specialist Gus Hiddink, offering him 7 million per annum. Another candidate for Turkish national team's chief coach is Christoff Daum, Rossiyskaya Gazeta reports.
The last WC-2010 qualification match between Armenian and Turkish national teams is due in Bursa on October 14. Match is of great significance from political viewpoint, since RA President Serzh Sargsyuan is planning to visit Bursa, thus continuing his "football diplomacy".
However, there is very little sporting intrigue since both national teams have theoretically lost all chances to participate in WC-2010.
Turkish team's chief coach Fatih Terim has already declared of his intention to quit football after upcoming match. Let's note that last year his trainees might have qualified for semi-final but for the "German Machine". Failure in qualification round has caused national football federation to seek a new skilled specialist like Gus Hiddink.
But Dutch specialist says he is now fully concentrated on work with Russian team. Let's note Hiddink's contract with RF Football Union expires in 2010.
