"Tottenham Hotspur have sacked manager Thomas Frank following the team's eighth straight fixture without a win. Spurs were plunged into a relegation battle in midweek as the club were beaten by Newcastle United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Eddie Howe's side have been notoriously poor travellers this season but managed to leave north London with all three points, spelling the end for his Danish counterpart."
"De Zerbi has previously managed in England, representing Brighton and Hove Albion between 2022 and 2024. The 46-year-old has subsequently been linked with a Premier League return, to take charge at Spurs who sit just five points above the drop zone. Tottenham have 11 days before the North London Derby against Arsenal, in what will be their next competitive outing, and it is thought this break in the schedule has motivated the Spurs board to make the change in the dugout."
Tottenham Hotspur sacked manager Thomas Frank after the team's eighth straight fixture without a win. The club lost to Newcastle United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, plunging the team into a relegation battle. Frank said he still believed he was the right man to take Tottenham forward, but the club's hierarchy relieved him of his duties about twelve hours after the final whistle. Spurs are expected to hold talks with Roberto De Zerbi, who left Marseille after a defeat by Paris Saint-Germain and an earlier Champions League group-stage exit. De Zerbi previously managed Brighton between 2022 and 2024 and has been linked with a Premier League return. Tottenham sit five points above the relegation zone and have eleven days before the North London Derby against Arsenal.
