Fabrizio Romano reveals Tottenham are at 'final stages' of hiring new manager
Tottenham Hotspur appear to be closing in on a new era, with negotiations between the club and Thomas Frank now understood to be at the final stages.
Tottenham Hotspur are now focused on appointing a new manager, following the sacking of Ange Postecoglou after just two seasons in north London.
Brentford manager Thomas Frank has emerged as Postecoglou’s likely successor, with multiple outlets reporting that the 51-year-old has held several rounds of discussions with chairman Daniel Levy in recent days.
It was revealed yesterday that Frank has informed Brentford of his desire to leave for Spurs, with further reports stating that Brentford are open to negotiating Thomas Frank’s exit, should the terms be right.
