Van de Ven, Spence Apologize to Frank After Chelsea Snub as Spurs Host Copenhagen

Frank says the apologies close a frustration‑fueled incident.

Overview

  • Thomas Frank said Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence visited his office unprompted to apologise for walking past him at full-time, stressing no disrespect was intended.
  • The flashpoint followed a 1-0 home loss to Chelsea in which Tottenham were booed off after posting an Opta-record low xG of 0.05 for the club.
  • Frank characterised the matter as internal and minor, noting he will protect his players and keep further details private.
  • Lucas Bergvall sustained a concussion against Chelsea and will miss at least the next two matches under protocol.
  • Spurs are unbeaten in this season’s Champions League and face FC Copenhagen tonight, with a win set to strengthen their position to progress.
