Spurs wrapped up second place in the English championship behind Chelsea in 2017. If former coach Mauricio Pochettino had his way, the title should actually belong to Tottenham.
Thomas Frank impressed many Premier League observers at Brentford, but then suffered a 38-game flop as head coach of Tottenham. He has been out of work since severing ties with Spurs, but Clinton Morrison has explained to GOAL why the Danish tactician’s reputation has not been tarnished. He is expected to return to the dugout at some point in the not too distant future.

Dejan Kulusevski is finally nearing a return to competitive football after enduring a gruelling 16-month battle with a complex knee injury. Sweden manager Graham Potter hopes to include the Tottenham Hotspur forward in his upcoming Nations League squad, provided the club's medical staff grant approval.
