Brentford in advanced talks with Keith Andrews to replace Thomas Frank as new manager
Frank was appointed as Tottenham Hotspu r manager, leaving the Bees to search for a new coach and Andrews, who has been working at the club as a set-piece coach since 2024.
Andrews is well-regarded at the club and it is understood he is now searching for coaches to join his staff in the Premier League next season.
Should Andrews be confirmed as the new manager, it would follow a pattern at the club of promoting from within, with Frank succeeding Dean Smith after operating as his assistant.
The former Wolves, MK Dons and Blackburn Rovers midfielder thrived as a pundit for Sky Sports on EFL games before opting to work within Frank's structure at Brentford last season.
Frank left Brentford after seven years, with Brentford considering a number of options, including Kieran McKenna after Ipswich's relegation from the Premier League.
But Brentford believe the 39-year-old has bigger aspirations within the Premier League and have now moved for Andrews as the probable successor to Frank.
Francesco Farioli, Kjetil Knutsen and Edin Terzic were also linked with the job, but Andrews appears set for his first managerial role of his career.
