Chinese media reported that coach Guus Hiddink is preparing to take over as head coach of the Chinese Olympic team. This is a strategic move by the Chinese Football Association to conquer the No. 1 position at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

Specifically, according to AFP, Mr. Hiddink is on his way back to Asia and the destination will most likely be China. Reporters caught the 71-year-old strategist sitting and taking very detailed notes during the recent match between the U21 China team and the U21 Myanmar team. Before the match, he also had a meeting with the players.

Previously, Xinhua News Agency made an ambiguous statement about the future of this Dutch coach. This newspaper revealed: "Currently, the Chinese Football Association has not officially confirmed its cooperation with Mr. Guus Hiddink, but it seems that this coach has begun the process of selecting and screening players."

In addition, the Chinese Football Federation has agreed to pay a salary of up to 4 million Euros/year to coach Hiddink.

In the past, Coach Guus Hiddink made a big splash in Asia when he helped the Korean team reach the semi-finals of the 2002 World Cup held in the land of kimchi. During his time in charge, Coach Park Hang Seo was Hiddink's assistant.

Currently, the Chinese team is led by Mr. Marcello Lippi - the coach who helped the Italian team win the 2006 World Cup. However, the country's football team still could not win a ticket to the 2018 World Cup and is currently only ranked 75th in the FIFA rankings.

Because of that, China is making efforts to thoroughly reform its football, aiming to approach the level of the region's top teams./.
