Thomas Frank’s future: Tottenham Hotspur board holds talks with Dein over manager amid growing pressure to keep job Football News

Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank is facing increasing pressure to retain his position.

The board is believed to have held talks over whether Frank should continue following Saturday’s 2-1 home defeat to West Ham United.

Spurs bosses are believed to be considering all options but have yet to make a final decision.

The Tottenham board want to stick to the long-term plan that includes Frank, which has always been the plan, but Saturday’s defeat took the toxicity to a new level at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

There were reports of clashes between fans outside the stadium, while a video emerged on social media of a fan approaching owner Vivienne Lewis in the hotel reception area to express their feelings about Frank’s future.

Unlike the vast majority of managers who have lost their jobs this season, Frank has tried to maintain a positive attitude and recognizes that this is a difficult time for the club.

He described it as trying to reverse the direction of a “supertanker” and it started moving in the right direction. But that did not reflect that in Saturday’s result against relegation-threatened rivals West Ham United, who ended a 10-game winless run in the league.

Not all the blame can be placed on Frank. The club is in a transitional phase following the post-Daniel Levy era, with a new captain at the helm and new staff still establishing themselves in multiple areas.

Regardless, it’s an important moment for Tottenham, who will carefully consider their next move ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League home clash with Borussia Dortmund.
