Thomas Tuchel has confirmed his intention to raid Chelsea and add Anthony Barry to his Bayern Munich coaching staff after being unveiled as the Bundesliga giants’ new head coach this week. Tuchel has replaced Julian Nagalsmann as manager at Bayern after being swiftly appointed to take over in the hopes of winning the Bundesliga and Champions League.
Tuchel was dismissed from his post at Stamford Bridge back in September last year, just days after the summer transfer window had closed. The German had fallen out with new owner Todd Boehly following a number of disagreements regarding transfer plans, with results also not going Chelsea's way at the start of the season.
Graham Potter was appointed as Tuchel's successor, but things have not gone quite as well as Boehly had hoped. The former Blues boss could return to Stamford Bridge in the Champions League semi-finals if Bayern can beat Manchester City and if Chelsea can navigate their way through to the last four by overcoming a tough quarter-final tie against Champions League holders Real Madrid.
