Total War developer The Creative Assembly isn’t creating a new Football Manager title for consoles, Sports Interactive studio director Miles Jacobson has said.

Yesterday rumours surfaced linking the Total War studio with the football manager franchise after a series of job advertisements were spotted. Rumours which aren’t true.

“There are some brilliant rumours going round today that Creative Assembly Oz are working on FM for consoles,” said Jacobson on Twitter. “The rumours are false.”

“We love CA Oz & UK like the brothers that they are, & will continue to knowledge share & tech share with them, but that’s as far as it goes.”

He added: “I can’t say what they are working on. They’ll announce when they are ready to. But it’s not one of our games at all.”

With Football Manager ruled out, what sports game which is part of “one of the biggest franchises in the games industry” could The Creative Assembly be working on? A new Mario and Sonic title maybe.
