Tottenham sack manager Thomas Frank

Premier League side Tottenham have sacked head coach Thomas Frank after less than eight months in charge.

Tottenham announced Frank’s dismissal via a statement on Wednesday.

The statement read: “The Club has taken the decision to make a change in the Men’s Head Coach position and Thomas Frank will leave today.

“Thomas was appointed in June 2025, and we have been determined to give him the time and support needed to build for the future together.

“However, results and performances have led the Board to conclude that a change at this point in the season is necessary.

“Throughout his time at the Club, Thomas has conducted himself with unwavering commitment, giving everything in his efforts to move the Club forward. We would like to thank him for his contribution and wish him every success in the future.

Tottenham fans booed Frank and chanted for his sacking during Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat to Newcastle.

EPL: West Ham end Man United’s winning run as Tottenham sink to 16th

Spurs are 16th in the Premier League table, five points above the drop zone, and have won just twice in their last 17 league games.

Frank left Brentford in June to replace Ange Postecoglou after the Australian was sacked despite winning the Europa League.

But the ex-Bees boss failed to win over the Tottenham faithful, with his short tenure littered with setbacks, including drinking from a coffee cup which carried the badge of rivals Arsenal.

Frank exits having won just 13 of his 38 games in charge, with the loss to Newcastle giving him the worst Premier League win percentage of any Tottenham manager in the Premier League era with just 26.9 per cent.
