Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly nearing a deal to hire Thomas Frank as their next manager. Spurs parted ways with Ange Postecoglou late last week, ultimately deciding that his Europa League triumph was not enough to compensate for the team’s 17th-placed Premier League finish.

Yves Bissouma has shared his text exchange with Ange Postecoglou after the Australian was sacked as Tottenham manager. Postecoglou led Spurs to their first trophy since 2008 by beating Manchester United in the Europa League final last month, but it was not enough for him to keep his job.
