Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with multiple managers in recent weeks, and it appears that Thomas Frank is high on their wish list.
The Denmark manager has done quite well for Brentford in the Premier League, and Tottenham are keen on him as a replacement for Ange Postecoglou. According to journalist Santi Aouna from Footmercato, there has been direct contact between Tottenham and the Danish manager.
He has a £9 million release clause in his contract.
Frank has reportedly held talks with Tottenham regarding the project at the club, and they have discussed potential transfer targets as well. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham end up appointing him as their next manager.
He has done an exceptional job at Brentford with limited resources, and there is no doubt that he has the quality to succeed at Tottenham.
The north London club will need to get their managerial appointment right this summer. They had a disappointing Premier League campaign last year, and they ended up finishing 17th in the table. For a club of their stature, it is simply unacceptable, and they will look to bounce back strongly.
Frank could help them get back on track. There is no doubt that Tottenham have a talented squad, and Postecoglou failed to get the best out of his players. Frank might be able to unlock their true potential.
The opportunity to manage the north London club will be quite exciting for the Danish manager, and he will be able to compete in the UEFA Champions League with them next season.
It remains to be seen how the situation develops. The Australian manager is highly likely to be shown the door this summer, but he has guided Tottenham to a European Cup, and it will be interesting to see if there is any hope for him to hold onto his job beyond this season.
