Crystal Palace has ruled out Thomas Frank as their new manager, with the Dane confirming he will not take on a new job this summer. Frank was considered to be one of the best options on the managerial market as a variety of Premier League clubs seek new bosses this summer, with Fulham and Crystal Palace needing to replace Marco Silva and Oliver Glasner, respectively. However, Frank has now confirmed that he will not take on a new job any time soon. In a statement via the League Managers Association, Frank wrote: 'There have been conversations and opportunities since leaving Spurs, but I have decided not to rush into the next role. For me, this summer is not the right time to go back into management.' The ex-Brentford manager left Tottenham languishing in 16th in the Premier League table after an eight-match winless run, and was replaced by interim boss Igor Tudor. When he failed to right the ship, the club turned to Roberto De Zerbi, who dodged relegation by beating Everton on the final day of the campaign. Frank has steered well clear of the limelight since his tumultuous Tottenham spell ended, choosing instead to spend time with his family. He seemed to struggle with the heightened media pressure that came with stepping up from Brentford to Spurs, with candid comments surrounding the side’s poor form alienating both fans and players. His public persona suffered a hammer blow in the weeks before his dismissal when he was pictured drinking out of an Arsenal-branded cup while walking on the pitch before facing Bournemouth. Frank finally broke his silence on Friday, though, expressing gratitude to those who had supported him after the sacking. He added: 'Leaving Tottenham has given me the chance to step back and reflect on my journey so far. Football management is a profession that demands complete commitment every single day, and periods like this are a rare opportunity to assess, learn and gain a fresh perspective. From the outside, it may have looked like a time of many challenges at Tottenham when results were not what we wanted. From within, however, it becomes clear why the club is so special - full of talented people who work tirelessly every day. I have no doubt Tottenham has a bright future.'
