AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Guus Hiddink, who led Russia to the 2008 European Championship semi-finals, said he would be happy to return to his former side as they look to put the misery of an early Euro 2016 exit behind them and prepare for the World Cup in two years' time.

The Dutchman, who took on the role of interim Chelsea manager after Jose Mourinho's sacking last year, has been linked with the job in the wake of Russia’s poor campaign in France.
