Daniel Levy ‘future uncertain’ after Thomas Frank appointment at Tottenham
Daniel Levy boldly sacked Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham after winning the Europa League, and Thomas Frank has emerged as a contender.
The North London outfit’s co-chairman has left some fans fuming after Spurs confirmed the ex-Celtic boss’ departure, with the 59-year-old head coach ending the 17-year trophy drought in N17.
Levy is eyeing Frank to take charge of the Lilywhites next season, and it’ll be interesting to see how the Brentford gaffer will fare if he’s appointed.
Frank failure at Tottenham will make Levy future uncertain
Alasdair Gold isn’t sure where Frank’s potential failure at Tottenham will leave Levy in the coming future.
The football.london journalist hopes the Danish head coach, who is thoroughly likeable, succeeds at the North London outfit for the fans’ sake.
Gold feels that if the Brentford boss isn’t a success, another ripped-up project would seemingly leave Levy in an uncertain position.

| Premier League | 38 | 16 | 8 | 14 |
The journalist wrote on X (7 June): “I hope for [Frank] and the fans’ sake he succeeds — however that’s to be judged now — because, having sat in a few of his press conferences, he’s a thoroughly likeable chap. If he doesn’t, I’m not sure where it leaves Levy after yet another ripped-up project.”
Supporters haven’t been pleased with how the Lilywhites’ co-chairman has been operating over the last few years, holding protests, and he undoubtedly has taken a gamble by deciding to look for a new manager.
Tottenham have massive managerial decision to make after Postecoglou sacking
Postecoglou’s sacking at Tottenham has led to mixed reactions among the fanbase, with many wanting the Australian head coach to be given another opportunity.
The 59-year-old head coach was arguably hindered by several fitness issues this season, leading to Archie Gray playing at centre-back on several occasions.
Spurs also lacked a prominent goal threat in the current campaign, with Dominic Solanke underwhelming and Richarlison struggling with consistent injuries.
Tottenham also saw James Maddison, Lucas Bergvall and Dejan Kulusevski pick up knocks towards the end of the season, sidelining them from the Europa League final.
Postecoglou did well to beat Manchester United with a weakened midfield, but the inclusion of Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven was arguably critical.
The Australian manager had been without two of his most crucial centre-backs for most of the season, which should be taken into consideration as Spurs finished 17th in the Premier League.
Frank has done an impressive job at Brentford, but managing the North London outfit comes with much larger expectations.
Now that Postecoglou has won a trophy at Tottenham, every other manager will be judged by those standards.
