Leading contender Frank, 51, has been in charge of Brentford for more than six years, and what a job he has done.
He took them into the Premier League, winning the Championship play-off final at Wembley in 2021, and has established the Bees as a top-flight club.
Brentford finished 10th in the Premier League this season, seven places and 18 points above Spurs, so would he be tempted?
In January, he told Football Focus that managing Brentford was the “perfect job” – but also accepted he would not be at the club forever.
“There’s much more pressure at Tottenham than there is at Brentford, because of the expectation – and the manager has to handle that expectation,” Chris Sutton, a Premier League winner with Blackburn Rovers in 1994-95, told BBC Sport.
So what would Spurs look like under Frank if he were to take the role?
“It’s a surprisingly difficult question to answer because he’s a really flexible manager,” said football tactics writer Alex Keble.
“He will automatically adapt his tactics to whoever the opposition is, a bit like Unai Emery at Aston Villa.
“In many ways he’s the opposite of Ange Postecoglou, who is famously wedded to one idea.”
