Tottenham eyeing Fabian Hurzeler as Thomas Frank replacement
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly considering a surprise move for Brighton & Hove Albion manager Fabian Hurzeler to replace Thomas Frank.
Fabian Hurzeler has done an impressive job at Brighton & Hove Albion, and he is being looked at as a potential replacement for Thomas Frank. According to a report by Football Insider, the Tottenham hierarchy is considering alternatives following the recent run of form.
Thomas Frank has the lowest home win rate of all Tottenham managers, and the team’s performance has been quite poor in recent weeks. It will not be surprising if the former Brentford manager is sacked in the coming weeks amid speculation surrounding his future. It will be interesting to see whether he can turn things around and keep his job.
It is natural for them to look at potential alternatives, and the German manager could be ideal for them. He has proven his quality in the Premier League with limited resources at Brighton & Hove Albion. There is no doubt that he has the pedigree to manage a bigger club. The opportunity to join Tottenham will be hard to turn down for him.

Hurzeler deserves a step up

The German tactician will look to guide them back to the UEFA Champions League and fight for domestic trophies. Tottenham have done well to bring quality players in recent windows, but the managers have not been able to get the best out of them.
