Thomas Frank has been relieved of his duties as head coach of Tottenham Hotspur after a poor run of results that culminated in a 2-1 defeat to Newcastle. Appointed in June 2025, Frank struggled to turn the team's fortunes around, with Tottenham sitting in a precarious 16th place in the Premier League and failing to secure a win in 2026. His record includes just 7 victories in 26 matches, averaging a mere 1.12 points per game.

The club's statement highlighted a determination to provide Frank with the necessary time and support to build a successful future, but ongoing disappointing performances led the board to conclude that a change was essential. This decision marks a significant shift for Tottenham, reflecting the club's early season aspirations which have now faltered dramatically, leaving supporters and stakeholders questioning the future direction of the team.

Frank’s sacking not only ends a short-lived managerial tenure but also adds pressure to the club as they seek a suitable replacement to steer them out of their current struggles. The upcoming weeks will be critical for Tottenham as they aim to regain form and stability in a competitive league, ensuring they avoid a prolonged relegation battle that could have serious implications for the club’s standing and future investments.
