About Thomas Frank (football manager) in brief
Thomas Frank is a Danish professional football coach and former amateur player. He is currently head coach of English club Brentford. Frank spent 18 years in youth coaching, which included spells as manager of multiple Danish national youth teams. He became a senior manager when Brøndby IF appointed him in 2013. He resigned from his role in March 2016 after receiving criticism from chairman Jan Bech Andersen, under a pseudonym, on an online supporters’ forum. In December 2016, Frank moved to England to join Brentford as assistant head coach alongside Richard O’Kelly.
In October 2018, after the departure of head coach Dean Smith, it was announced that Frank had been promoted into the role. He guided Brentford to the fifth round of the FA Cup and an 11th-place finish in the Championship at the end of the 2018–19 season. After an uneven start to the 2019–20 season and switching back to a 4–3–3 formation, 10 points from five matches in October 2019 saw Frank nominated for the Championship Manager of the Month award. He reached 100 matches as Brentford manager in late October 2020.
