Classy Thomas Frank opens his first Tottenham press conference by paying a touching tribute to Diogo Jota and Andre Silva

Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has paid tribute to Diogo Jota after he died in a car crash aged 28 earlier this month.

Jota and his brother Andre Silva, 25, were killed following the accident, which occurred in northern Spain on July 3.

Now, in his first Spurs press conference since joining the club from Premier League rivals Brentford, Frank has paid tribute to the pair.

The Danish manager was announced as the Lilywhites' manager last month after they decided to sack Ange Postecoglou - despite the Australian winning them a first trophy in 17 years as he guided to victory over Manchester United in the Europa League final.
