The remains of Richard Dyson were found in a property on Broadcarr Road in Holyland on July 14.
Richard was 55 when he was reported missing in November 2019.
His family has been informed and are being supported by specialist officers.
Two men, aged 72 and 71, who were re-arrested on suspicion of murder last month have been bailed in relation to this offence, South Yorkshire Police say.
Detective Inspector Adam Watkinson said: “Our thoughts today are with Richard Dyson’s family on what is an extremely difficult day for everyone who knew and loved him.
“We have supported Richard’s loved ones throughout our investigation into his disappearance, and will continue to do so following this tragic news. We’re urging the public and members of the media to please respect their privacy at this time.
“Our investigation into Richard’s death is very much ongoing and I’d urge anyone who has information which could help our investigation to share it with us if you have not done so already.”
