Thomas Frank Draws Tottenham Newcomer Away From Chelsea as PSG Gain

TBR Football chief correspondent Graeme Bailey reports that Simons decided after speaking with Tottenham manager Thomas Frank.

The Dutch midfielder discussed his role in the squad and the club’s plans with Frank. After the conversation, Simons was quickly convinced, making the move to Tottenham an obvious choice.

“Like with a number of Spurs’ arrivals, Thomas Frank has played a big part in this,” Bailey said. “I am told Spurs appealed to him, but Frank had a chat with him. Following that, it was a no-brainer. Simons was hugely impressed!”
