Interesting Brentford revelation emerges as Tottenham finalise Thomas Frank deal
As Thomas Frank edges closer to officially being confirmed as the next Tottenham head coach, a new update has revealed how likely the Dane is to raid Brentford for Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa, both of whom Frank is thought to be a big fan of.
Although Spurs are yet to officially announce Ange Postecoglou’s successor, reports indicate that Frank will be confirmed as the Tottenham boss in a matter of days.
It was previously reported that Spurs could hijack Man United’s £60m move Mbeumo at Frank’s insistence, with the Lilywhites hoping that the offer of Champions League football will turn the Cameroon international’s head.
However, over recent days, some sources have claimed that Tottenham are unlikely to win the race for Mbeumo, with Man United remaining the firm favourites to land the forward.
Will Thomas Frank bring Brentford stars to Tottenham?
A new report from Football Insider has now claimed that the soon-to-be Tottenham Hotspur head coach is unlikely to poach any of Brentford’s players this summer.
The outlet claims that Frank is indeed a big admirer of what Mbeumo and Wissa offer, given the way the pair have developed at the Gtech Community Stadium under his tutelage.
However, the Dane has “no immediate plans” to bring any of his Bees players along with him to the North London club.
In fact, it is asserted that Brentford could even prevent any approaches by seeking assurances from Tottenham about not poaching their players should Daniel Levy decide to haggle over Frank’s £10m buyout figure.
Brentford defender has also been linked with a move to Spurs
It is not just Mbeumo and Wissa who are rumoured to be on Tottenham’s radar but also a Brentford centre-back, who has come on leaps and bounds over the last 12 months.
It was reported earlier this week that Frank would like to bring Nathan Collins with him to Spurs as he looks to reinforce the Lilywhites backline.
Tottenham may need to sign a top-class centre-back this summer, with Cristian Romero continuing to be heavily linked with a move to Atletico Madrid.
