POSTECH HARD Tottenham's next manager, Brentford Frank, has risen rapidly!



[London (UK) = Egan Sports Chosun.COM reporter] Tottenham Hotspur replaced coach Andrzej Postecoglou and began to appoint a successor. Thomas Frank, who is leading Brentford, is cited as a strong candidate for the next head coach.

Britain's Sky Sports reported on the 7th (Korea time) 'Tottenham began to appoint a successor shortly after replacing Postecoglou, and Frank is now the No. 1 candidate' However, official negotiations with Brentford have not yet begun. The contract with Frank reportedly includes a buyout clause.

Postecoglou changed his team with aggressive tactics after taking over as Tottenham from Celtic in the summer of 2023. It gave a meaningful result of winning the Europa League last season. It was the third European match win in Tottenham's history and the first since club legends Bill Nicholson and Keith Birkinshaw.




However, it did not meet expectations in the Premier League. With injuries, rotation and Europa League-focused operations combined, last season's final league performance ended in the worst Premier League ranking in Tottenham's history. The club continued its slump with 78 points in the last 66 games. The board unanimously agreed that changes were needed.' As a result, Tottenham is rushing to appoint a new coach, and Brentford's Thomas Frank is considered the most likely candidate.

Frank has led Brentford since October 2018 and achieved promotion to the Premier League in 2021. After that, the team was settled into the first division stably. Brentford have remained in the upper middle since promotion, ranking 13th, 9th, 16th and 10th in recent seasons. In particular, he made an impressive performance against the strong team. He won against Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City, and Tottenham, showing the true value of tactical flexibility and practical soccer.

Coach Frank has worked with Tottenham's technical director Johan Lange in the past in Ringbue, Denmark. Lange was also on the shortlist when he was at Aston Villa. Last year, Manchester United also reviewed Frank, but it did not happen while maintaining the Erik ten Hag system. Speaking to Sky Sports, Frank said "I'm happy here now. But if there is a new challenge, I can think about it," he said, leaving open the possibility. "Brentford is a special club with a good environment to work in. I don't think I have to find something bigger or better."




In addition to Frank, Tottenham are also considering Fulham's Marco Silva and Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola as candidates. Silva brought Fulham close to European competition and also advanced to the quarterfinals of the FA Cup for the second consecutive season. Iraola made a strong impression by leading Bournemouth to the highest record (9th).
