Thomas Frank responds to Antonin Kinsky Tottenham transfer rumours
Thomas Frank has addressed recent speculation surrounding Antonin Kinsky’s future, providing a firm update that will reassure Tottenham supporters ahead of the new season.
Over the past few weeks, Tottenham Hotspur have experienced more departures than arrivals, with club captain Heung-min Son making a high-profile switch to LA FC, while several academy talents have secured loan moves ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
Among the players linked with an exit was Antonin Kinsky, with reports suggesting that Lille had earmarked him as a potential target this summer.
The French club recently lost their first-choice goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier to Paris Saint-Germain, prompting them to identify Kinsky as a possible replacement.
Thomas Frank sends message about Kinsky’s Spurs future
Speaking ahead of the UEFA Super Cup clash with Paris Saint-Germain, Thomas Frank moved to shut down talk of his goalkeeper leaving N17 in this transfer window.
The Tottenham manager was unequivocal, insisting that the Czech international remains an important part of his plans and can play a big role this season.
He told Football.london: “Antonin Kinsky, I am very pleased with him. There is good competition. Last season we needed four keepers. In my opinion, he has got a great career ahead of him and here at Tottenham this season.”
Tottenham’s goalkeeping depth could prove vital
Antonin Kinsky featured regularly in Tottenham’s pre-season, often sharing minutes with Guglielmo Vicario, particularly in matches against Reading and Luton Town.
Those appearances suggest Frank is prepared to offer the 21-year-old valuable game time across the campaign, especially with the club competing in multiple competitions.
Vicario endured injury problems last term, missing several months with an ankle issue. Should the Italian suffer a similar setback, it will be crucial for Tottenham to have Kinsky ready to step in.
