Tottenham, which shockingly dismissed Enze Postecoglou, is expected to appoint Thomas Frank Brentford as the next head coach as expected.
England's 'The Sun' reported on the 9th (Korea Standard Time) 'Frank agreed to take the helm of Tottenham' Tottenham replaced Postecoglou, who presented the trophy in the Europa League in the 2024-2025 season, on the 7th.
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, the English Premier League (EPL) has been hampered. 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.

Frank is from Denmark. He was appointed as Brentford manager in the championship (second division) in October 2018 and promoted to the EPL in the 2020-2021 season. Frank led seven successful seasons at Brentford. In the 2024-2025 season, he led Brentford, a typical 'Selling Club', in 10th place.
Coach Frank is said to be closely connected to Tottenham's general manager Johan Lange. Lange led the negotiations. `The Sun' is expected to become Tottenham's fourth official head coach in the past four years, although Marco Silva and Andoni Iraola have also been nominated for the head coach of Tottenham,' he said.
There are still negotiations between Tottenham and Brentford, but there are no major obstacles. If you pay 9 million pounds (about 16.5 billion won), which is coach Frank's 'Buyout', you can recruit him.
Brian Mbormo's 'Hijacking' leaving Brentford is also of interest. Mbömo, a French-born Cameroonian national team member, was likely to be all the rage. He ruled in Manchester United's favor in the recruitment of Manchester United and Arsenal.
However, it is a new phase with head coach Frank going to Tottenham. The Sun analyzed on the 8th that 'Tottenham expects the recruitment of Frank to help Mbömo negotiate a transfer.

Mbommo nestled in Brentford in August 2019. He played for two seasons in the Championship, helping Brentford win promotion to the EPL. In the EPL, it exploded during the 2024-2025 season. Mbomo has scored 20 goals and eight assists in the EPL, attracting the attention of big clubs.
His transfer fee, which ends with Brentford in June next year, is around 60 million pounds (about 110 billion won). Mbomo is reportedly asking for 250,000 pounds (about 460 million won) per week. If Tottenham accepts it, it is the club's highest amount, exceeding Son Heung-min's 190,000 pounds (about 349 million won) per week.
Mbomo's main position is on the right wing. It's the other side of left winger Son Heung-min. However, Son Heung-min can make another choice, such as a transfer, if his weekly salary is twisted. Frank has highly valued Son Heung-min.
