Thomas Frank looks set to be the man to replace Ange Postecoglou as Tottenham head coach.
Postecoglou was relieved of his duties in N17 on Friday evening after a crazy season in north London. Tottenham lifted their first piece of silverware in 17 years when they won the UEFA Europa League by beating Manchester United in Bilbao.
But Spurs finished the Premier League season just one place above the relegation zone after a record-worst 22 defeats. Postecoglou had made the decision, midway through the season, with no threat of relegation and no hope of finishing in the European places, to focus on the Europa League, and it paid off.
There was consternation among many behind the scenes at the club with that decision to prioritise Europe and that was one of the overlying reasons why he was sacked.
Frank will now be tasked with taking the reins - if he is the one to get the nod as he is the overwhelming favourite with the bookmakers to arrive in N17.
Tottenham officials have reportedly held talks with the Dane, who has spent the last seven years with Brentford, turning the Bees into an established Premier League outfit.
In a statement on Postecoglou's sacking, the Spurs board sent a clear 12-word message to the new manager before he has even started.
In a nod to that Postecoglou decision to prioritise the Europa League campaign, the statement read: "It is crucial that we are able to compete on multiple fronts."
The statement went on that the club "believe a change of approach will give us the strongest chance for the coming season and beyond".
It is clear that, with Spurs in the UEFA Champions League next season, as a result of that Europa League success, challenging for one trophy - and even winning it - is not enough. Expectations are much higher.
