  WHAT HAPPENED?

  The Danish manager’s arrival marks a fresh chapter for Spurs following the departure of Postecoglou, who led the club to a Europa League triumph, their first trophy in 17 years. However, a disappointing domestic campaign saw them finish 17th in the league table, which cost the Australian manager his job.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Frank arrives at Spurs after an impressive seven-year stint with Brentford, where he earned plaudits for his tactical nous. The 50-year-old famously guided the Bees to Premier League promotion in 2020, ending a 74-year wait for top-flight football. Now, Frank has signed on to lead Tottenham until 2028 and will be expected to bring stability and identity to a club still seeking to re-establish itself as a consistent force both in England and in Europe.
