Thomas Frank is the favourite to succeed Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham Hotspur after the Australian's dismissal.
Spurs announced on Friday afternoon that they will be looking for a new head coach after sacking former Celtic boss Postecoglou. The 59-year-old leaves after Tottenham endured a dismal domestic campaign in 2024/25, with the club finishing 17th in the Premier League table.
Postecoglou led Spurs to their first major trophy in 17 years after the Lilywhites beat Manchester United 1-0 in the Europa League final. Victory in Bilbao also secured a place in next season's Champions League and a welcome £100 million cash boost.
But Tottenham's domestic struggles have cost Postecoglou, and Brentford boss Frank is the bookmakers' favourite to succeed him in north London. When asked about his future at the Gtech Community Stadium last month, the Dane confirmed he is as focused as ever with Brentford after their 3-2 defeat to Fulham.
"Right now, of course, I am committed," he said. "I just lost to Fulham, our local rivals, so [I am] fuming in every aspect.
“So yes, I am committed like I have always been.”
Now the 24/25 domestic campaign is over, it remains to be seen whether Frank will stay at the Bees, who finished tenth - seven places above Spurs.
Fulham boss Marco Silva has also been linked with the Spurs hotseat in recent months as well as Bournemouth head coach Andoni Iraola.
Announcing Postecoglou's dismissal, a statement on the club's website read: "It is crucial that we are able to compete on multiple fronts and believe a change of approach will give us the strongest chance for the coming season and beyond.
"This has been one of the toughest decisions we have had to make and is not a decision that we have taken lightly, nor one we have rushed to conclude. We have made what we believe is the right decision to give us the best chance of success going forward, not the easy decision.
"We have a talented, young squad and Ange has given us a great platform to build upon. We should like to express our gratitude to him. We wish him well for the future - he will always be welcome back at our home.
"News on the appointment of a new Head Coach will be announced in due course."
