Thomas Frank sacked as Tottenham manager

Tottenham have parted ways with head coach Thomas Frank after less than eight months in charge, Sky Sports reports.

This comes a day after Spurs lost 2-1 to Newcastle at home.

The result leaves the North London club sitting in 16th place, five points above the drop zone.

Tottenham have won just twice in their last 17 league games.

Frank leaves having won just 13 of his 38 matches in charge.

The loss to Newcastle gave him the worst Premier League win percentage of any Spurs manager in the Premier League era with just 26.9 per cent.
