The latest reports have revealed that Brentford are growing increasingly concerned about Tottenham’s interest in one of their key men this summer.
Ange Postecoglou has surely edged his name into Tottenham folklore after he ended the club’s 17-year wait for silverware by winning the Europa League trophy.
The manager had stated earlier in the campaign that he always wins things in his second season, and that statement rings true after he brought an end to the club’s four-decade wait for a European trophy.
While it is all party and celebration at N17 thanks to their European run, Postecoglou’s future remains uncertain due to a poor Premier League campaign that saw Tottenham finish in 17th place, losing 22 out of 38 games.
Tottenham considering Thomas Frank as Ange Postecoglou’s future hangs in the balance
Of course, Postecoglou would point to the injury crisis at the start of the season, as well as the club’s deep run in Europe, as reasons why their league form faltered, but the club’s hierarchy is reportedly still on the lookout for a new manager.
This is according to TBR Football, who state that a host of managerial names have been assessed by Tottenham’s hierarchy as they weigh up potential alternatives to Postecoglou.
Brentford’s Thomas Frank is very much in the mix, and the publication highlights that the Bees are growing increasingly worried about Tottenham’s interest in their manager.

Other options being considered include former boss Mauricio Pochettino, along with Roberto De Zerbi, Andoni Iraola, Oliver Glasner, Kieran McKenna, and Marco Silva.
Brentford’s Thomas Frank impressing Spurs amid Postecoglou uncertainty
Brentford have enjoyed another successful spell in the English top flight, as Thomas Frank has guided the Bees to yet another top-half finish for the second time in three seasons.
The Dane continues to impress, and it is no surprise that he is under the radar of Spurs, given how well he has done with Brentford under a limited budget.
Ange Postecoglou, on the other hand, would be hoping that his recent European exploits are enough to earn him a third season in the Tottenham dugout, after boldly claiming that season three is always better than season two in movies.
The latest reports suggest that the Tottenham hierarchy is considering a decision on the future of the Australian manager, but one such decision will not come this week.
