Next Tottenham manager LIVE updates as Thomas Frank sacked after Newcastle defeat

Tottenham Hotspur have sacked Thomas Frank after Tuesday's dismal 2-1 defeat to Newcastle United on Tuesday.

Spurs have parted company with the 52 year-old following the home reverse to the Magpies, a defeat which left Spurs only five points above the relegation zone.

That gap would have been just three points but for Benjamin Sesko's injury time equaliser for Manchester United at 18th-placed West Ham United.

Spurs are now on the lookout for a replacement for Frank just months after appointing him as Ange Postecoglou's successor in the summer and a new manager will be in charge for the North London Derby in 11 days.
