Thomas Frank Brentford will take the helm of Tottenham.
European transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano will be appointed as Tottenham's new head coach on his SNS on the 10th (Korea time). An oral agreement has been reached, and official steps are being taken, shouting 'HERE WE GO'
Frank is under contract with Brentford until June 2027. Tottenham have agreed with Brentford on the condition of paying £10 million (about 18.4 billion won), which is 'Buyout'. Coach Frank's coaching staff also decided to accompany him to Tottenham.
Frank is from Denmark. He took the helm of Brentford in the championship (second division) in October 2018 and was promoted to the EPL in the 2020-2021 season. It was the first promotion in 86 years.
Frank successfully coached Brentford for seven seasons. In the English Premier League, he ranked 13th, 9th, 16th and 10th in four seasons. Coach Frank is said to be closely connected to Tottenham's general manager Johan Lange. Chairman Daniel Levy gave Lange the full power to negotiate.

In September last year, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola evaluated Frank as a strategist who would work well for big clubs. He said "Brentford are an amazing team. Everything they do is reasonable. All corner kicks cause headaches, dense defense, pressure tactics in high areas. Frank said it was one of the best coaches. "It's only a matter of time before you get into a big club. Praise has become a reality. Brentford is based in London, like Tottenham, but it cannot be compared directly.
Tottenham replaced Postecoglou on the 7th, who presented the Europa League trophy for the 2024-2025 season. Postecoglou shook off Tottenham's 17-year winning drought after winning the League Cup in the 2007-2008 season. In the case of the European match, it was the first time in 41 years since winning the UEFA Cup, the predecessor of the Europa League in the 1983-1984 season.
However, he was hamstrung in the EPL. Tottenham ranked 17th in the EPL with 38 points (11 wins, 5 draws and 22 losses), the remaining Maginot line. Since the launch of the EPL, not only the points but also the ranking is the worst.

Tottenham dismissed Postecoglou after a performance evaluation and an in-depth review. The board unanimously concluded that changes were needed." Winning the Europa League is one of the club's greatest moments, but it could not make a decision devoted solely to winning. In the upcoming season, we should be able to compete for the top ranks in more moments through change. One of the most difficult decisions we have ever made' he explained.
Son Heung-min's contract period has been extended to June next year if Tottenham invokes the option earlier this year. Frank has highly valued Son Heung-min when he was Brentford manager.
However, rumors of a transfer to Saudi Arabia are constantly flowing out. Son Heung-min holds the key. If Son Heung-min decides, there is a possibility that he will leave Tottenham.
