Tottenham Hotspur has dismissed head coach Thomas Frank after less than eight months in charge, following a disappointing 2-1 loss to Newcastle at home. The team currently sits 16th in the Premier League, just five points above the relegation zone, amid a string of poor results. Spurs have not won any of their last eight Premier League matches, their worst run since October 2008, with only two wins in their last 17 league games, earning 12 points during that period.
In a statement, Spurs announced the decision to part ways with Thomas Frank, who was appointed in June 2025. Despite the club’s initial intention to support his long-term vision, poor results and performances led to the board’s decision for a mid-season change. The club expressed gratitude for Frank’s dedication and wished him success in his future endeavors.
Although struggling in the Premier League, Tottenham’s performance in the Champions League has been more positive, securing a fourth-place finish in the group stage to advance to the last 16. Thomas Frank, who took over as head coach in June, had a contract until 2028 and succeeded Ange Postecoglou. He brought extensive English football experience, notably with Brentford, where he significantly elevated the team’s status from the Championship to a competitive Premier League side, exceeding expectations consistently over a prolonged period.
