Brentford are in search of a new head coach after Thomas Frank took charge at Tottenham.
In this article, we will analyze possible candidates to replace Frank, who has held the position since 2018.
Kieran McKenna
Dropping out of the Premier League has done little to dampen McKenna’s reputation as one of the most talented managers in Britain. The fact he has taken Ipswich to the top flight from their League One relegation in 2023 underlines his undoubted talent. With his ability to combine attacking football with pragmatism, the 39-year-old could be a great choice for Brentford and was linked with several high-profile vacancies last summer.
Kjetil Knutsen
Bodo/Glimt manager Knutsen has earned acclaim for his time at the Norwegian club, where he led the lower league side to the Europa League semi-finals. Knutsen has won four Eliteserien titles in seven years and has been mentioned as a candidate for the Rangers, Celtic and Leeds jobs in recent seasons. Could the prospect of a Premier League job persuade Knutsen to leave Bodo?
Kasper Hulmand
If Brentford are to maintain the Danish legacy at the Gtech Community Stadium, they may consider appointing fellow countryman Hjulmand to replace Frank. The former Denmark manager has been out of a job since leaving the national team last summer, but he is a familiar face to some Bees players. Captain Christian Norgaard, Mathias Jensen and Mikkel Damsgaard have all been regulars under Hjulmand, who impressively led his country to the semi-finals of Euro 2020 in emotional circumstances following the Christian Eriksen incident.
Danny Rohl
An unlikely choice given his lack of Premier League experience, Danny Rohl has made a successful first stint as manager. Sheffield Wednesday were on the brink of relegation before Rohl, 36, steered the club out of trouble and helped them to a respectable 12th place last season. The German has been linked with several Bundesliga jobs.
