Former Chelsea caretaker manager Guus Hiddink is keeping an open mind regarding a return to the Premier League, but insists he is enjoying his current role with Anzhi Makhachkala.
Anzhi head to Newcastle on the back of a 0-0 draw in Moscow last week, but Hiddink is unsure if the winner on Thursday night will be genuine candidates to lift the Europa League trophy. He said: "Well, if you see now the teams who are going into this pyramid to the final on May 15 in Amsterdam, those are big teams, they are all big teams now. "We are happy to be in the last 16 and it would be a tremendous achievement for us to be in the last eight. "If you see which teams could be playing in the last eight, that's Champions League level. "It's difficult and unpredictable to say whether the teams can go all the way. We like to go step by step and not think too much ahead, but if we could make the next step, it would give a lot of prestige. "Newcastle, I know they have also, from what I have heard, the ambition to play in the final in Amsterdam, so it will be a nice clash tomorrow. "But I cannot predict the future. If I could, I wouldn't have been a coach."
