It was reported that Thomas Frank, who is coaching Kim Ji-soo, has been nominated for Tottenham's next coach.

Ben Jacobs, an expert in the European transfer market, reported on Give Me Sports in England on the 24th (Korea time) who Tottenham is currently considering as the next coach.

Journalist Jacobs added: `If Tottenham officially draw up a list of candidates for the next head coach, and there is a vacancy, we are still watching more of Bournemouth coach Andoni Iraola, who is very highly ranked in Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy's thoughts"Iraola is the top target," he said.

This is confirmed to some extent. British talk sport is a major target to replace Tottenham if they decide to break up with Postecoglou on the 11th. Bournemouth owner Bill Foley said he was trying to persuade the much-liked manager Iraola to dedicate his future to Bournemouth.

However, Bournemouth are making every effort not to hand over Iraola to Tottenham. If coach Iraola decides to stay in Bournemouth, Tottenham has no choice but to choose another candidate.

Journalist Jacobs said "Pullum coach Marco Silva and Brentford coach Thomas Frank are the candidates for Tottenham's leadership. It's interesting that they all have proven Premier League experience."

It is interesting to note that Frank is also nominated for Tottenham's next coach. Frank has been at Brentford since 2016. Coach Frank, who became an official coach through internal promotion in 2018, is building a successful career. It promoted Brentford to the EPL for the first time in 74 years while staying in the English Championship.

Even after being promoted to the EPL, he has been mentioned as a manager of a big club as he has consistently made achievements. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola also said Frank would coach the big club one day.

Coach Frank has a relationship with a Korean player. Kim Ji-soo, who made his debut with Seongnam FC, was recruited in 2023. Kim Ji-soo grew up under coach Frank and made his debut this season. As a result, Kim Ji-soo became the youngest Korean player in the EPL. If coach Frank goes to Tottenham, he will coach Son Heung-min, another Korean player.

Frank is under contract with Brentford until 2027. Once the future of coach Enze Postecoglou is decided, Tottenham's next coach candidate is expected to be finally decided.
