Juande Ramos has played down speculation linking him with a return to Real Betis.
Rumours have been rife in Spain that the former Tottenham and Real Madrid coach is being lined up to take over from Antonio Tapia after a disappointing run of results.
In their last five Segunda Division games, Betis have picked up just four points, leaving them seventh in the table and five points adrift of the promotion places.
Ramos is without a club after leaving Russian side CSKA Moscow by mutual consent last October, but has denied there is an offer on the table at the Seville-based club.
He wrote on his personal website : "At no point has anybody from Real Betis been in contact with me or my representative Gines Carvajal to convey to us a job offer."
Ramos coached at Betis during the 2001/02 campaign before famously leading city rivals Sevilla to five trophies in two seasons between 2005 and 2007.
