Tommy Wright has been charged with two counts of accepting a bribe
Three men including former Barnsley FC assistant manager Tommy Wright have pleaded not guilty to bribery offences.
Mr Wright, 52, of Dark Lane, Barnsley, denied two counts of accepting a bribe between April and September 2016.
Football agent Dax Price, 47, from Sittingbourne, and Giuseppe Pagliara, 62, from Manchester, denied two counts of paying and facilitating a bribe.
All three were bailed at Westminster Magistrates' Court to appear at Southwark Crown Court on 22 October.
The men were charged last month after a Daily Telegraph investigation into English football and the activities of players' agents.
