Thomas Frank has identified the number six that he wants to add to the Tottenham midfield, but the Lilywhites’ attempts to land the experienced Premier League star are expected to be foiled this summer.Spurs fans are waiting for an announcement regarding the appointment of a new head coach, with Frank expected to replace Ange Postecoglou at the helm over the coming days.There have already been plenty of rumours about the Dane potentially raiding Brentford for some of their players over the last few days.There have been suggestions that Frank wants to bring Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa to Spurs while reports over recent days have also suggested that Tottenham could try to swoop for Nathan Collins.Now, a fresh update has claimed that a Bees midfielder is also on the radar of the Lilywhites.Photo by Clive Rose/Getty ImagesTottenham expected to be frustrated in Christian Norgaard pursuitGiveMeSport have now said that Frank is likely to be installed as Postecoglou’s successor by this weekend and conversations have already taken place between the Dane and the North London club regarding summer transfer targets.It is revealed that Christian Norgaard’s name has been discussed by Spurs, but it is ‘increasingly unlikely’ that the midfielder will follow his head coach to N17.Tottenham Hotspur are expected to face frustration in their attempts to sign the 31-year-old as Brentford are not prepared to allow him to leave this summer.The West London club have made it clear that they will hold firm if offers come in for their captain and they are determined to block his move away from the club.In fact, it is asserted that the Bees could even attempt to tie down the experienced midfielder to a new deal to ward off the transfer interest.How keen is Thomas Frank on landing Norgaard?GiveMeSport say that Frank sees Norgaard as a key part of his success at Brentford, and has a long-standing relationship with him, with the pair having worked together at Brondby and in the Danish youth set-up.There is a strong belief that the pair complement each other both on and off the pitch and the midfielder has been instrumental in carrying out the 51-year-old’s game plan.The outlet adds that Tottenham could also face stiff competition from Everton, Fulham and Bournemouth for Norgaard, but there is determination at the Gtech Community Stadium to price the player out of a move this summer.READ MORE: Tottenham urged to hijack big-money deal for Thomas Frank’s first signingThe post Tottenham frustrated in attempts to sign Danish number six for Thomas Frank appeared first on Spurs Web.
