Thomas Frank reveals he was interviewed by Man United and Chelsea on the same day - with now Tottenham boss speaking to Sir Jim Ratcliffe in British billionaire's garage

Thomas Frank has revealed he was interviewed by Manchester United and Chelsea on the same day during his final year in charge of Brentford.

The Tottenham manager shed light on the two meetings that took place on May 24 2024, beginning with a conversation inside Sir Jim Ratcliffe's garage before travelling across London for further talks with Chelsea.

Frank had already spent six years with the Bees by that point, having guided them into the Premier League in 2021 and established them as a stable top-flight side across his seven-season tenure.
