Dick Advocaat looks set to quit his post as head coach of South Korea after the World Cup, fuelling speculation that he will return to PSV Eindhoven as successor to Guus Hiddink.

Advocaat, also linked with the job at Zenit St Petersburg, emerged as a likely contender when it was revealed that PSV had engaged Jan Wouters to be the number two to as an as yet unknown head coach.

The two men have worked together at PSV and Rangers and that has further shortened the odds on Advocaat replacing Hiddink.

Advocaat admitted: "It would not be strange to get a call from PSV - I know the club, they know who they sign and I think it would be a nice challenge."

There has also been speculation that he might succeed Hiddink as Australia coach after the World Cup.

Advocaat told De Telegraaf: "It's true that several sides have shown their interest in me but at the moment I have no concrete negotiations with anyone."

The 58-year-old said: "I want to stay on the field anyway for some more years."

Referring again to PSV, he said: "Between 1995 and 1998 I had a fantastic time there with success."
