It appears as though talk of Harry Redknapp taking over at Al-Jazira is a bit premature.
The former Tottenham manager took to Twitter to deny contact with the UAE top-flight club, whose current coach Abel Braga is thought to be on his way out.
Al-Jazira have struggled to cope with the loss of Manuel Lanzini to West Ham, and currently sit 11th in the 14-team league after nine matches.
But they may need to look for someone other than Redknapp to turn things around.
Not spoken to anyone from Dubai. Load of cobblers.

The 68-year-old has been without a club since leaving QPR in February, but perhaps we should always have been sceptical about the prospect of him taking a job away from the South of England.
Reminder that Spurs are the most northerly of the 7 English clubs Harry Redknapp has either played for or managed.
