Tottenham Hotspur has made great strides in their attempts to bring Brentford manager Thomas Frank to the club.
The source is notified Catch off side The London side is moving fast, but the deal appears to rely on several key points.
First, Tottenham is reportedly ready to activate the release clause in Frank’s deal with Brentford. However, Brentford does not want to lose a successful manager, so he is looking for an alternative solution. The club is considering the possibility of offering Frank a new contract.
Tottenham hierarchy was impressed
Meanwhile, Tottenham continues searching for managers in a very intense way. Johan Lange and Daniel Levy are said to play a direct role in the process of determining a new manager after Ange Postecoglou’s departure.
Frank is considered an ideal candidate to direct their long-term projects. His consistent performance in the Premier League impressed Tottenham’s management.
However, the strong connection of the Danish manager with Brentford could potentially extend the process. However, there have been progress in consultations. If an agreement is reached, Tottenham’s goals for next season could change dramatically.
The club is considering restructuring its relocation strategy in line with Thomas Frank’s demands. The Brentford manager is aiming to compete with Manchester United for Brian Mbeumo when he comes to Tottenham.
Thomas Frank would be the ideal fit
Tottenham needs a manager with a balanced approach, and Frank could be the ideal appointment for them. Postecoglou was often criticized for his overly aggressive offensive system. On top of that, the Danish manager has shown that he can work with limited resources, and his team tends to exceed his weight. He could be ideal for Tottenham.
As far as Mbeumo is concerned, Frank was able to make the most of him at Brentford, and arriving at Tottenham could give them an edge in the transfer race.
