According to Tottenham CEO Vinai Venkatesham, the team conducted a thorough search for a new manager. They defined 10 key characteristics that they believe are essential for a successful manager at Tottenham Hotspur. Their technical staff, led by Johan Lange, carefully analyzed each of the over 30 candidates.

After narrowing down the list, the team spent a significant amount of time with their shortlist. Thomas Frank stood out as the top candidate, and Vinai Venkatesham expressed his excitement about Frank joining the team.

One of the qualities that Vinai Venkatesham is particularly looking forward to seeing Frank develop in his new role is his ability to nurture young players. The team is eager to see what Frank can achieve with their current squad.

The fixture for Thomas Frank's first match as Tottenham boss has been confirmed. They will face Luton Town on Saturday, 26 July, at Kenilworth Road, with a kick-off time of 3 pm.
