The two former Tottenham managers, Thomas Frank & Ange Postecoglou, will go into another battle this summer after they both signed up to be TV pundits at the 2026 World Cup.
It is said that Frank has signed a deal to be a lead analyst for BBC Sport at the event, while Postecoglou will provide coverage for ITV. The two men may come as a shock due to the pair both leaving their jobs this year due to terrible managerial spells.
Since his sacking from the Tottenham hotseat in February after just 13 wins from 38 matches, the lowest recorded by any permanent manager, Frank has remained relatively out of the limelight. Postecoglou also vanished into thin air after being sacked from his Nottingham Forest job after failing to secure a single win in the five games he managed.
On the BBC, alongside veteran analysts Wayne Rooney, Alan Shearer, and Joe Hart will be World Cup veteran and former Arsenal and France international Olivier Giroud. Andros Townsend is to lead the ITV panel, along with ex-Tottenham and former winger, who will be amongst former players such as Gary Neville, Roy Keane, and Ian Wright.
The BBC and ITV will broadcast the entirety of the tournament. The two will also broadcast the World Cup final on July 19, and every 104 matches of the expanded tournament will be televised live by both the BBC and ITV.
