‘Brentford to be relegated from the Premier League as Tottenham plan transfer raid’
Brenford must now adapt to life without Thomas Frank after the Dane was appointed Tottenham Head Coach.
Frank has officially succeeded Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham after an announcement was made on Thursday (12 June).
It appears the Dane already has a clear idea of what he wants his team to look like next season and looks set to raid his former club, which could cause long-term damage in West London.
Tottenham are interested in Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa
Tottenham are expected to raid Brentford for possible transfers this summer.
The Lilywhites have not hidden their affections for Bryan Mbeumo, who has been strongly linked to Manchester United.
However, it has been suggested that the right-winger could be convinced to move to North London after Frank was confirmed as head coach.
| Players | Appearances | Goals | Assists | Minutes |
| Bryan Mbeumo | 42 | 20 | 9 | 3.577′ |
| Yoane Wissa | 39 | 20 | 5 | 3.079 |
As reported by The Guardian (13 June), Tottenham have held initial talks about signing Mbeumo.
United had an offer worth up to £55million rejected last week and are set to return with an improved bid. The Bees value Mbeumo at more than £60m, and Spurs will need to be prepared to spend big if they want to secure the forward’s services.
Tottenham are also interested in a transfer for Mbeumo’s partner in crime, Yoane Wissa, this summer.
But Spurs’ interests do not stop at these two. The North London club have been searching for a potential Cristian Romero replacement, with Brentford’s Nathan Collins emerging as a potential option.

There is every chance that these players will be interested in the move, with Frank confirmed to lead the pack next season.
The purchase of all these players could be too much for Brentford to handle, and they could even find themselves back in the Championship once the new season ends.
Tottenham should buy Frank the players he wants
The most successful managers have the squad that they built behind them. Therefore, Daniel Levy cannot assume that Frank is any different.
As a result, the 63-year-old will need to be amenable to all of the Danes’ transfer demands so that he can create a title-winning team, and with the summer transfer window set to reopen on Monday, 16 June, Tottenham will need to accelerate on all potential signings.
