Thomas Frank is swapping the pressures of the dugout for microphones and mountain stages, revealing he's turned down job offers to spend the summer covering the World Cup and enjoying the Tour de France after his disappointing spell at Tottenham.
The Danish coach, who was sacked by the English club in February after eight months at the helm, stated he deliberately chose not to return to work despite receiving inquiries following his departure from North London.
“There have been conversations and opportunities since I left Tottenham, but I’ve decided not to rush into my next role. For me, this summer isn't the right time to return to coaching,” Frank said.
“When the right moment comes, I’ll look forward to returning as a manager, ready to embrace the work with great energy and dedication,” the football specialist added.
Instead, the 52-year-old Thomas Frank will be covering the World Cup for Danish national television and the BBC, while also “experiencing the Tour de France,” which kicks off on July 4th.
“Leaving Tottenham gave me a chance to step back and reflect on my journey so far. Football coaching is a profession that demands complete dedication every single day, and periods like this are a rare opportunity to gain a new perspective. Football remains a huge part of who I am, and I’ve chosen to use this time productively. In the coming months, besides spending time with family and friends, I will continue to learn from other leaders both within and outside of sports,” Frank further commented.
