Thomas Frank takes over Tottenham: New coach with a big vision!

Udine, Italien - Tottenham Hotspur signed Thomas Frank as the new head coach. The 51-year-old Dane signed a contract until 2028 and succeeds Posetecoglou. This decision comes after Postecoglou has been released for 17 years despite the winning of the Europa League and the first title for the club.

Thomas Frank returns to the Spurs with an impressive record. After almost eight and a half years at FC Brentford, where he started in 2018 as head coach, he led the club to the Premier League in 2021 and kept it in the league to this day. During his time at Brentford, he achieved places 13, 9, 16 and 10 in his four Premier League season. These successes make him one of the most promising coaching figures in the league, which Tottenham has reinforced in her choice. The club described Frank as one of the most progressive and innovative coaches in England, which is due to its visionary playing style and its ability to form competitive teams with a smaller budget.

Frank is accompanied by his former team from Brentford, which includes Justin Cochrane (assistant coach), Chris Haslam (head of performance) and Joe Newton (analyst). Andreas Georgson, who comes from Manchester United, is new. This personal continuity and familiarity could ensure a quick structure and successful integration into the new environment.

The challenges in Tottenham

One of the challenges for Thomas Frank will be that he has no experience in the management of Champions League football. In addition, he will be the fifth permanent trainer under the chairman Daniel Levy in six years, which underlines the need for stability and sustainable development in the club. However, the management of the association is optimistic because Frank was considered the first election by the Scurse board members.

At the beginning of the new season, Frank will play his first competitive game as a coach of the Spurs in the UEFA Super Cup against Paris Saint-Germain on August 13th in Udine, Italy. This will be a significant first test, which will show how quickly he can implement his ideas and philosophy in the team.
