First Division South side Sheffield FC have appointed Curtis Woodhouse as their new manager.
Curtis is currently a professional boxer, but the former footballer counts Sheffield United, Birmingham City and Hull City amongst his former clubs, and will announce his backroom staff in due course.
He has previously played for Sheffield towards the end of the 2009/10 season - which culminated with the side reaching the play-offs and winning the Senior Cup - and the beginning of the following campaign, making his debut as a substitute against Leek Town in March 2010.
In a statement released to the league today, the club announced, "I'm sure all supporters will join us in wishing him all the best and hope his appointment gives Sheffield FC a fighting chance, pardon the pun, of improving on last season's excellent efforts. Welcome (back) to the club Curtis."
