Tottenham could face Thomas Frank in January but his record against Spurs is actually awful

Former Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has reportedly emerged as the leading candidate to replace Pierre Sage at Crystal Palace. With Palace sitting bottom of the Premier League table, Sage faces dismissal following a poor run of form. If appointed, Frank could face his former club Tottenham on January 23, 2027.

Spurs Web highlights that Frank holds a poor career record against Tottenham, having managed just one victory in nine encounters, alongside three draws and five defeats. Crystal Palace is also reportedly considering Sean Dyche and Rob Edwards for the role.
