Hull City insist there's been no approach from Wigan Athletic for Steve Bruce.

Bruce is being linked with a return to the DW.

But the Hull Daily Mail says Tigers vice-chairman Ehab Allam says no approach has been made, from Wigan or any other club, for Bruce's services.

Allam said City had also spoken to Bruce, who is returning for a family holiday, and he confirmed he had not been approached directly.
