Tottenham Hotspur ran a tough 2024/25 campaign, which ultimately led to the firing of Ange Postecoglou from his manager’s post. However, the Australians left the hero and ended the biggest year of the year during many looking for silverware.
It was a controversial call, but in Thomas Frank, Tottenham has a successor to the dugout. They returned to prominence in the Premier League and were able to introduce the stability and smoothness needed to build from the foundations Anji laid.
Fans have stopped signing ahead of their highly anticipated return to the Champions League as Frank settles at his post.

The Danish tactician fantasized about a reunion with Brentford’s Talisman Brian Mbemo, but the front on the right deepened his desire to join Manchester United.
And now Antoine Semegno has extended his contract with Bournemouth. Both wingers were vested interest in the Spurs, but the turns of these events may still lead Frank and Co to a bunch of picks.
In fact, according to Transfer Insider Graeme Bailey, the man could become Mohammed Kudus of West Ham United, the centre of a £55 million bid from Lilywhites this week.
Kudus has a £85 million release clause, but Iron is willing to be willing to do business at a more modest amount, which is still expected to be around £10 million more than the fees Spurs offers.
What Mohammed Kudus brings to Spurs
West Ham signed Kudus from Ajax in August 2023 with a figure of £38 million. A true tribute escaped him on the British coast – notching 32 goal contributions from 80 games in every tournament – there’s a lot I like about this powerful winger who moves the pitch like Deuce.
Kudus wasn’t at his best last season and he was undecided. But looking at how he compares with Mbemo’s recent season in the UK in 2023/24, the opening year, it highlights the quality of the players Tottenham adds to their creases.
Certainly, the Ghanaians could do more from a prolific perspective, but when he first played for Frank at Brentford, was Mbeumo a sophisticated scorer and creator? Would a wise coach not bring these qualities to the forefront for Kudus?

His positional dynamism is a very attractive feature of a typical forward skill set, but in reality he is signed for his ability to barrel the right wing, and such physical attributes even describe journalist Gary Al Smith as a “generational talent.”
This is highlighted by his 90% passing success rate in the Premier League last season, and also highlighted a successful duel of 2.9 dribbling and 6.4 per game, according to Sofa Scole.
Mbeumo may have scored 20 goals in 38 Premier League appearances last year, but he averaged 1.4 dribbling and 4.7 successful duels per match. This is impressive, but not as remarkable as the West Ham star.
Tottenham was able to sign the jackpot. Kudos is already clear as a highly talented Premier League star, but has the material to become even bigger under Frank’s leadership.
