Postecoglou was dismissed after winning the Europa League trophy, defeating Manchester United 1-0 in the final. Despite delivering Tottenham’s first piece of silverware in 17 years, the club’s 17th-place finish in the Premier League with just 38 points proved decisive and led to his departure.
Meanwhile, The Sun reports that Frank wants to bring Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo with him to Tottenham. Mbeumo is also a transfer target for Manchester United, who have already made an offer worth 45 million pounds plus 10 million in bonuses — but it was rejected by the Bees’ hierarchy. Tottenham’s advantage is that, following their Europa League triumph, the London club can offer the forward Champions League football, along with the chance to continue working under Thomas Frank.
