Bryan Mbeumo and five Brentford transfers Johan Lange can target for Thomas Frank and Tottenham

Thomas Frank is now the new head coach of Tottenham Hotspur. The Dane was confirmed as Ange Postecoglou's replacement on Thursday evening, penning a three-year contract at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The 2024/25 season was certainly a mixed one from a Tottenham perspective and the hope will be that Frank can take the club forward and have them battling for a top-four finish once again. It wasn't all disappointment for Spurs last term as they did go on to lift the Europa League trophy with a 1-0 win over Manchester United.

Cup football will once again be very important to the club, with Frank having the opportunity to manage in the Champions League for the first time as a result of the team winning UEFA's second club competition.

Now that Frank is in position and will be getting straight down to work, all eyes will be on what the club do in the transfer market as they bid for a fast start. So far, Brentford duo Nathan Collins and Bryan Mbeumo have been linked with moves to Tottenham and a reunion with the 51-year-old.

So who exactly could Frank, Johan Lange and Tottenham target from Brentford this summer as they look to improve their playing squad? football.london takes a look below.

Nathan Collins

Collins has been linked with a move to Tottenham already. Talk of a potential move across the capital may start to crank up now given Cristian Romero's message in his emotional Instagram post about Postecoglou's departure.

Making a name for himself at Stoke City and Burnley prior to moving to Wolves in 2022, the 24-year-old has been a regular in the Brentford backline in the past two seasons, notably playing every single minute in the Premier League in 2024/25. Something which very much highlights his reliability, consistency and his fitness, he could be a smart addition for the Lilywhites due to their lack of numbers in the position across last term.

Vitaly Janelt/Christian Norgaard

Tottenham are still on the lookout for a No.6 to really take their midfield to the next level. Yves Bissouma is not the answer there due to his fluctuating form and he himself may move on this summer due to his contract status.

Both Vitaly Janelt and Christian Norgaard have been permanent fixtures in Frank's Brentford team and both give the team stability and protection. As Janelt only turned 27 last month and Norgaard is now 31, the former may be the better option for Spurs if they were to raid Brentford for a holding midfielder.

Speaking of Janelt last year after he won Brentford's players' player of the year gong, Frank said: “Vitaly has been hugely important for us during the four seasons he’s been here. He’s impacted massively the success we have had.

"This season he has started 36 games and came on in the 37th. He and Ethan [Pinnock] are unsung heroes. They never hit the headlines that much. Vitaly is the glue that makes everyone better: he never stops running, he is a leader and he is extremely important.”

Mikkel Damsgaard

Frank is also a huge fan of fellow Dane Mikkel Damsgaard. Coming to the attention of many with his sublime free-kick for Denmark in their Euro 2020 semi-final against England, the attacking midfielder really struggled to make an impact in his first two seasons at Brentford before wowing in 2024/25.

Damsgaard finished the season with three goals and 11 assists in 43 games in all competitions, duly picking up Brentford' supporters' player of the year and players' player of the year awards last month. Damsgaard's form was that good he even won Brentford's player of the month award four times in a row between October and January.

The 24-year-old is an outstanding player but Tottenham already have options in the attacking midfield role in James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski. The Dane does give Frank options, though, as he can play on either flank and as a central midfielder.

Bryan Mbeumo

Mbeumo is the player Tottenham fans would love Frank to sign from Brentford this summer. Always a key player for the Bees following his move from Troyes in 2019, the Cameroon international went up another level or two in the 2024/25 season.

Unable to hit double figures in his previous three Premier League campaigns, Mbeumo registered 20 Premier League goals and he also contributed with nine assists across all competitions. Only 25 years of age, he could be a major player in the final third for Tottenham if they could beat Manchester United to his signature in a reported £60million deal.

Yoane Wissa

Tottenham may have splashed out big money on Dominic Solanke last summer but they may possibly be on the lookout for a new frontman ahead of the 2025/26 campaign. That may all depend on what happens with Richarlison after three difficult seasons in N17.

If Tottenham do want to bring in a new striker to add to Frank's squad, Yoane Wissa could be the perfect addition Just like Mbeumo, Wissa contributed 20 goals across the season and was a major player in Brentford's excellent form.

Wissa does turn 29 in September, though, and Spurs may want a younger player as they build towards the future. If they want someone for the here and now to add to the club's striker options, the DR Congo ace would be a good acquisition.

Kevin Schade

Tottenham could certainly do with upgrading their options out wide next season amid question marks over a number of players. It remains to be seen what the future holds for players such as Son Heung-min, Richarlison, Mathys Tel and Manor Solomon heading into the new term.

Kevin Schade enjoyed a very impressive season and made his mark with 12 goals and three assists across all competitions. Mainly playing from the left-wing but also able to play as a striker and from the right, the German has pace to burn and there could still be even more to come from him as he develops as a player.
