The Dutchman is now 74.

Hiddink had stepped down temporarily earlier this year, leaving Patrick Kluivert in charge.

"I spoke with the president and we came to the conclusion that, with the team going in a new direction, it's better for me to leave," Hiddink said.

"I'm going to stop [coaching] altogether."
