Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed Thomas Frank will leave his role as Men’s Head Coach. The Dane’s short tenure ended after poor results and performances led the Board to conclude a change was necessary.
According to an official statement on Tottenham’s X account, Frank, “who joined Spurs in June 2025, had been given time and support to build for the future.”
However, a troubling run of form, especially domestically, left him on increasingly shaky ground. The Club’s statement noted that he “conducted himself with unwavering commitment” and thanked him for his efforts. They added they … “wish him every success in the future.”
Tottenham’s board acted after Tuesday’s 2–1 home defeat to Newcastle United, leaving Spurs 16th in the Premier League, just five points above the relegation zone. That loss marked one of many poor results, with the club winning only two of their last 17 league games.
How Frank’s reign unravelled and what lies ahead at Tottenham
Thomas Frank arrived with a positive reputation built during seven impressive years at Brentford, where he guided them into the Premier League and kept them competitive.
But his transition to Spurs proved far tougher than expected, as fan discontent and tactical questions grew around his approach. At Brentford, Frank was known for outperforming expectations and maximising limited resources.

Yet at Spurs, injuries, inconsistent attacking play and defensive frailties contributed to spiralling confidence on and off the pitch. Fans frequently expressed frustration in stadium chants and social media.
Now, with 12 matches left in the season, Tottenham are expected to explore interim and long-term options. The club’s hierarchy will be under pressure to find a replacement capable of stabilising results. The looming North London derby on February 22 only increases the urgency of that task.
Despite his exit, Frank leaves with memories of Champions League progress. His departure also marks another chapter in Spurs’ recent managerial churn, as the club seeks redemption.
