Chelsea assistant coach Anthony Barry has agreed to stay away from the club's Cobham training ground while the Blues attempt to thrash out a deal which would allow him to reunite with Thomas Tuchel at Bayern Munich.
Barry worked closely with Tuchel during the German's previous stint at Stamford Bridge before he was ruthlessly axed just three months after the club were purchased by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital last year.
After several months out of the game, Tuchel was confirmed as the new head coach of Bayern Munich late last week - and the 49-year-old has moved quickly to try and persuade his former Chelsea colleague to join him in the Bundesliga.
