Thomas Frank fighting to save job as Tottenham hold talks and chief visits training ground

Tottenham are growing increasingly concerned after just one win in their last eight games with board discussions taking place

Under-pressure Thomas Frank is fighting to retain his position as Tottenham head coach.

Spurs have been keen to afford Frank opportunities to prove himself, but mounting concern regarding the team's performances has left the Dane facing an uncertain future.

The defeat by struggling London rivals West Ham on Saturday has placed Frank in a precarious situation, with senior figures holding discussions regarding his position at the helm.

Frank is hoping to remain in the dugout for Tuesday evening's crucial Champions League encounter against Borussia Dortmund, but the fixture has now transformed into a potentially decisive moment for the boss.

Spurs have secured just a solitary victory across their previous eight fixtures, and the supporters have voiced their discontent, chanting "you're getting sacked in the morning" following the disappointing home reverse against West Ham.

Following the match, Frank maintained that he continues to enjoy the backing of the club's leadership and remains committed to reversing the current fortunes.

However, a supporters' protest took place on Saturday ahead of kick-off, intensifying the pressure on the Dane, who has occupied the role for merely seven months.

Tottenham chief executive Vinai Venkatesham visited the club's training complex on Sunday morning as scrutiny on Frank continues to intensify.

Venkatesham wrote an open letter to supporters which featured in Saturday's matchday programme, emphasising the club's commitment to maintaining a long-term strategy whilst enhancing supporter relations.

The fanbase are expressing their opinions clearly, which presents a significant worry, particularly given that even season ticket holders must purchase their own tickets for Champions League fixtures. The Borussia Dortmund match could serve as a gauge, while they also face a challenging journey to Burnley next Saturday.
