Much-travelled Guus Hiddink is on the move again taking over as head coach of Turkey as they gear up for the Euro 2012 qualifying campaign.

The Turkish Football Federation on its website Wednesday announced that that the Dutchman had agreed on a two-year contract, with an option for a further two years.

He will take over in August a month after the end of his current contract as head coach of Russia.

Hiddink has previously been in charge of the national teams of his native Netherlands, South Korea and Australia before taking over as manager of Russia.

He took Russia to the semi-finals of Euro 2008, but failed to qualify them for the 2010 World Cup losing oput to Slovenia in the play-offs. Hiddink doubled up then as coach at Chelsea.

He has previous experience of management in Turkey being in charge of Istanbul club side Fenerbahce in the 1990/91 season.
