Tottenham make big Thomas Frank decision for Borussia Dortmund clash in the Champions League
Tottenham Hotspur have taken a decision on Thomas Frank’s immediate future as pressure continues to build ahead of a crucial UEFA Champions League meeting with Borussia Dortmund.
Thomas Frank is a man under immense pressure at Tottenham Hotspur given their recent run of results.
Spurs are without a win in their last five matches and have suffered three defeats on the bounce in their last three outings in all competitions.
The 2-1 defeat at the hands of relegation-threatened West Ham United last weekend has brought even more pressure on Frank, with Tottenham now weighing up a potential managerial change.

Reports over the weekend stated that at least one member of the Tottenham executive team is pushing for Frank’s dismissal, following the West Ham defeat.
However, Sky Sports have now claimed that Thomas Frank is set to remain in charge of Spurs for their midweek UEFA Champions League clash against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday.
It is understood that talks have taken place at board level over whether Frank should continue following Saturday’s 2-1 home defeat by West Ham, with the Spurs hierarchy also looking at alternative options, but the club now appears willing to give the Dane the chance to guide his side through this difficult spell.
Spurs maintain strong Champions League position ahead of Dortmund clash
Frank has been Tottenham manager for around six months, with results failing to show consistency since the early part of the season.
His spell has brought growing dissatisfaction among the Tottenham fanbase, who have regularly booed both the manager and his side off the pitch after several lacklustre displays, with further chants heard following the West Ham game suggesting Frank would be sacked in the morning.
David Ornstein has also reported on the Dane’s situation revealing that Frank is set to remain incharge for the Dortmund clash on Tuesday.
Spurs do, however, remain in a strong position in the Champions League league phase, sitting just a single point outside the top eight, with a victory potentially lifting them into the automatic qualification places should results elsewhere go their way.
