Tottenham sack Thomas Frank
In an official statement, Spurs confirmed the decision on X:
"The Club has taken the decision to make a change in the Men’s Head Coach position and Thomas Frank will leave today," the statement read.
"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."
According to talkSPORT sources, Tottenham had been preparing for a managerial shift since early 2026.
The club now faces the task of deciding whether to appoint a permanent replacement immediately or bring in an interim coach for the remainder of the campaign.
Frank’s last league triumph came in a narrow 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace on December 28.
Below are Thomas Frank's stats at Tottenham:
Tottenham’s struggles under the former Brentford boss highlighted issues in consistency and defensive stability, prompting the board to act decisively before the season slips further away.
For fans and players alike, the focus now shifts to stabilisation and finding a leadership figure who can steady the squad and preserve their Premier League status.

For Tottenham players, Frank’s departure ushers in a period of uncertainty, particularly for Mohammed Kudus, who had been pivotal to the Danish boss's plans until his injury.
The Ghanaian international, who scored three goals and provided six assists in 26 appearances, according to Transfermarkt, will soon adapt to a new tactical approach and coaching style.
Since moving from Ajax Amsterdam to the Premier League in 2023, Kudus has now worked under four different managers in England: David Moyes, Graham Potter, Julen Lopetegui and Thomas Frank.
While he continues to recover from injury, with a return expected in March, he will need to adjust quickly to the methods and expectations of his incoming coach.
As Tottenham searches for fresh direction, attention will also remain on key performers like Kudus, whose ability to adapt and perform under new guidance could prove crucial in steering the team away from danger and rekindling their ambitions for the remainder of the season.
