Thomas Frank had shared a message with Ange Postecoglou before he was dismissed from Tottenham Hotspur's managerial role.
Brentford manager Thomas Frank is reportedly on the verge of joining Tottenham Hotspur as their new head coach, following the unexpected dismissal of Ange Postecoglou last week.

Ange Postecoglou, despite expressing his desire to continue at Tottenham and celebrating a Europa League triumph just last month, was ultimately let go by chairman Daniel Levy, who was evidently dissatisfied with the team's league performance.
