"Spurs made the contentious decision to sack Europa League-winning boss Ange Postecoglou in June and turned to Frank in an attempt to compete across multiple competitions after a 17th-placed finish in the Premier League during an injury-hit 2024-25 campaign. However, Frank has left Tottenham with the club out of both domestic cups and perilously close to the relegation zone after a run of two wins in 17 league fixtures. Here is a look at the permanent candidates to take the hotseat in N17."
"While he is expected to lead the United States into this summer's home World Cup, his contract expires after the tournament. Given Pochettino turned Tottenham into title-challengers, developed a talented young group of players and masterminded a remarkable run to the Champions League final in 2019, he may be top of most supporters' wish list and his name was chanted during Tuesday's loss to Newcastle."
"Keane made himself a fans' favorite at Spurs with 122 goals but could return as manager with the Dubliner amongst the candidates to replace Thomas Frank. The 45-year-old took his first top job at Maccabi Tel Aviv in 2023, winning a double before taking the Ferencvaros job just over 12 months ago. A Hungarian league title followed last summer and his Europa League results have impressed this term, as four wins and three draws booked a knockout place."
Tottenham dismissed Ange Postecoglou in June and appointed Thomas Frank, who has now left after poor results that left the club out of both domestic cups and near the relegation zone following two wins in 17 league fixtures. The club seeks a permanent manager. Mauricio Pochettino is linked, potentially available after the World Cup, having previously led Tottenham to title contention and a 2019 Champions League final. Robbie Keane is a former player turned manager with recent domestic doubles and European progress. Andoni Iraola has transformed Bournemouth and could be available with his contract expiring in June.
