Guus Hiddink has said he will decide on his future as coach of the Russian national side in February.
The Dutchman's contract runs until July 2010, but after Russia lost 1-0 in Slovenia on Wednesday night and failed to make the 2010 World Cup, speculation has grown that Hiddink may leave. The Russian FA has said it wants him to lead the side's Euro 2012 campaign.
"I have an existing contract until the end of the World Cup finals in July 2010. The question of whether I will continue to UEFA Euro 2012 will require some time for thought," Hiddink told reporters after the game.
"Before the matches with Germany and Slovenia, the Russian Football Association expressed their desire to continue working together. But we'll talk about the future at a later stage," he added.
Hiddink took over as Russia coach in 2006 and led the side to the semi-finals of Euro 2008.
