[Saba Sports News] Recently, Tottenham Hotspur officially announced that Thomas Frank will become their new head coach, with a contract running until 2028. British media recently published an article introducing Frank’s wife, Nanna, stating that she provided significant financial support during Frank’s early struggles. The report noted that Frank and Nanna initially lived in a suburb of Copenhagen before moving to London when Frank joined Brentford in 2016. Nanna works as a social worker. Early in his coaching career, Frank earned approximately £5,000 annually while dedicating around 40 hours per week to studying and coaching. During this period, Nanna played a crucial role in the family finances, enabling Frank to pursue his football dream amid economic uncertainty. It is known that the couple has three children—two daughters and a son—and Frank once mentioned in interviews that he nearly quit football to become a teacher; his decision to join Brentford was partly driven by professional considerations and partly to support his wife and children.
