And this has brought attention back onto the Chelsea legend who had an impressive career spanning over 20 years. 

So talkSPORT.com takes a look at Wise’s time at Stamford Bridge as well as how much he is worth after success on and off the pitch.

When did Dennis Wise play for Chelsea? 

Wise signed for Chelsea in 1990 for £1.6million from Wimbledon which was a club-record fee at the time. 

He stayed at the club for 11 years, making 445 appearances for the club in total, leaving him now sitting as the eighth highest appearance maker ever for the Blues. 

The former midfielder lifted two FA Cups, one League Cup and one UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup as captain and he is Chelsea’s second most successful skipper of all time behind John Terry. 

He left the club in 2001 and went on to play for Leicester City, Millwall, Southampton and Coventry before retiring from football in 2006.

What is his net worth? 

Wise is worth £9million, according to reports.

He would have earned a hefty amount during his playing days, however, he has also taken well to time off the pitch. 

The 56-year-old had a short stint in management after retiring before focusing on things away from football. 

Wise has been successful with property and has made a big investment into a golf course, while also featuring on I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here in 2017. 

He also has a non-profit organisation that raises money for those with disabilities and that is said to have raised over £1million.

Wise’s return to the footballing world has seen him become the president of Serie B side Como 1907.
