The 73-year-old was confirmed on Friday, signing a deal until after the 2022 World Cup as head coach and also technical director.
Hiddink told Fox Sports, “It may not be obvious, but it was difficult to say” no. Curaçao has made good progress in recent years and I would like to help the players and staff to get one step higher on the international ladder.”
The former Netherlands head coach has been out of work since leaving his role in charge of the Chinese Olympic team in 2019.
Huge fan of Hiddink I wish him the best & hope they do well In competitions. They are starting to get some decent players that don’t make the Dutch squad. Not a bad place to visit I hear either.
