Leeds United has today dismissed tiresome media speculation that Dennis Wise is to return to management at Elland Road.
The former Wimbledon and Chelsea midfielder, now with Championship rivals Southampton, is a family friend of United Chairman Ken Bates but yet again there is no substance to the rumour that the pair will soon be working together.
"It's simply not true, someone is mischief making ahead of our game with Southampton," said a Leeds United spokesman.
Today's speculation has surfaced on the South Coast, with the Daily Echo quoting a "source close to Leeds" that Wise would be in place soon, and that it was a matter of not if, but when.
Wise spent 18 months as manager at Millwall and took the Lions to the FA Cup Final in 2004, before resigning in May this year.
Kevin Blackwell's Leeds United side face Southampton at Elland Road next Tuesday, tickets are on general sale now.
