Bangkok: Indonesia is looking to hire Jose Mourinho to coach its national football team, the country’s minister of Youth and Sports said on Tuesday.

Dutchman Guus Hiddink is their second preferred candidate. Hiddink replaced Mourinho on a part-time basis at Chelsea midway through the ongoing season, reports Efe. “This plan has been discussed with President Joko Widodo and the chairman of the Indonesian Olympics Committee, Erick Thohir, even though this won’t be easy,” minister Imam Nahrawi said, according to the Antara news agency on Tuesday.
