Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly close to finalizing a deal with Thomas Frank to become their new head coach. The negotiations between Tottenham and Brentford have been ongoing and are progressing positively, with expectations that Frank could be confirmed within the next 48 hours.

Thomas Frank, who has been with Brentford since 2016, initially as an assistant before taking over as head coach in 2018, has been instrumental in Brentford's rise to the Premier League. Under his leadership, Brentford secured promotion by winning the Championship play-off final at Wembley in 2021 and established themselves as a competitive top-flight club on a modest budget.

Last season, Brentford finished 10th in the Premier League, seven places and 18 points above Tottenham, who struggled and ended in 17th place. The sacking of Ange Postecoglou just 16 days after leading Tottenham to victory in the Europa League final has left the club in need of a new direction.

Frank's appointment is seen as a strategic move to bring stability and a fresh perspective to Tottenham. The 51-year-old Dane is known for his tactical acumen and ability to maximize the potential of his squad. However, securing Frank's services will come at a cost, with Tottenham expected to pay Brentford a compensation fee of around £10 million, which could increase depending on the number of staff Frank decides to bring with him.

This potential appointment marks a significant moment for Tottenham as they aim to rebuild and compete more effectively in the Premier League. Fans and analysts alike will be keen to see how Frank's leadership can transform the team's fortunes.
