Tottenham announced the replacement of Postecoglou on the club's website on the 7th. Postecoglou, who won the Europa League and gave Tottenham the trophy for the first time in 17 years, could not overcome his slump in the league. The club said 'The board unanimously concluded that changes were necessary'
He immediately started appointing the next coach. Frank was the first coach to be considered. The British Telegraph reports that Frank is expected to be a strong candidate for Tottenham's next coach. Tottenham will likely have to pay a £10m penalty, it said. European football transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano also said that Frank is eager to become Tottenham's new coach.
Frank, who has led Brentford since 2018, is one of the competent managers who have succeeded in remaining in the first division along with the club's promotion to the EPL. He showed his ability to find players on a limited budget, and his tactical style was also well-received, finding the best way in a given squad. He is also a coach who recruited Korean national team defender Kim Ji-soo to Brentford.

Tottenham is preparing for a new time again under the new coach. If Frank's appointment is completed, expectations for Tottenham in the next season are also expected to grow again.
