The 51-year-old is also having a significant say in the club’s transfer business.
He is said to have been a driving force behind the deal for Kudus, while the club’s efforts to sign Savinho from Manchester City are described as having Frank’s seal of approval.
Nevertheless, the window hasn’t been without its difficulties.
The high-profile pursuit of Nottingham Forest attacker Morgan Gibbs-White – and its ultimate failure owing to legal issues related to the England international’s £60m release clause – was a blow.
Spurs would also like to sign Marc Guehi, but the Crystal Palace captain prefers Liverpool as a destination.
So far, only Kudus and Joao Palhinha – on a season-long loan from Bayern Munich – have arrived.
For some supporters, that isn’t enough.
Talks of fan protests at the perceived lack of squad investment has been an unwanted narrative that has followed the club this summer, since the move for Gibbs-White fell through.
There is money to spend, with owners Enic understood to have injected a level of cash into the club.
Landing Savinho and Palace attacker Eberechi Eze – who Tottenham have held talks over – would go some way to appeasing disgruntled supporters.
“This transfer window, we are definitely in the market and will do everything we can to make the best possible and strong squad,” Frank added.
“There are a few things in the air, shall we say, along the way.”
