ramexpat Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Guus Hiddink has resigned as manager of Anzhi Makhachkala, sparking speculation he could be the next Barcelona boss. Former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen has replaced Hiddink as the new head coach at Anzhi, who play in the Russian league. Barcelona need a new coach because Tito Vilanova has stepped down in order to undergo further treatment for cancer. Hiddink guided big-spending Anzhi to third place in the league - the highest finish in their history - and also reached the final of the Russian Cup last season. The Dutchman agreed a one-year contract extension only last month but just two games into the new Russian season, Hiddink has resigned. Bookmakers reacted by slashing the odds on the former Chelsea boss to become the new head coach at Barcelona. Hiddink has played a key role in the emergence of the Dagestan-based club built on the backing of billionaire owner Suleyman Kerimov. An Anzhi statement read: "FC Anzhi has accepted the request of the head coach to terminate their employment relationship. "The club sincerely thanks Guus Hiddink for his significant contribution to the club and wishes him success in his future career." http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11833/8835916/guus-hiddink-linked-with-barcelona-after-quitting-anzhi-makhachkala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
