Brentford contacted former Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou about replacing Thomas Frank | OneFootball

Brentford reached out to former Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou about replacing Thomas Frank, according to The Athletic.

However, the Australian was not interviewed for the job, with both parties agreeing that progressing to that stage was not the best option.

Tottenham parted with Postecoglou despite winning the Europa League last term, and they appointed Frank to replace him.

Brentford have since appointed a successor to the new Spurs boss, promoting former set-piece coach Keith Andrews into the role.

Postecoglou joined Tottenham from Celtic in June 2023, having won everything in Scotland.

He led the London club to a fifth-place finish at the end of his debut Premier League season, narrowly missing out on fourth place.

Spurs finished 17th in the Premier League table at the end of his second season in charge.

However, he guided them to their first trophy since 2008, and it was thought that would be enough to convince the club to hold on to him.

However, Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy sacked him two weeks after the Europa League final victory against Manchester United, and Frank has since taken over.

The Dane managed Brentford from October 2018 until last month. He joined them as an assistant head coach in 2016 and brings extensive experience to the Spurs’ dugout.

Frank helped the Bees secure Premier League promotion from the Championship at the end of the 2020-21 season after three attempts.

He comfortably kept them up in the four seasons he spent with them in the top-flight.

Postecoglou has been linked with Los Angeles FC since leaving Spurs, and he will not be short of suitors as the 2025-26 campaign draws nearer.
