Chelsea boss Graham Potter has confirmed that coach Anthony Barry is not currently working at the club. The 36-year-old has been in talks over a switch to the German club in the coming months but the two sides have so far been unable to agree a compensation package.
It would be a huge shift in the coaching team at Stamford Bridge if Barry were to leave as he has been highly-rated at the club since he joined under Frank Lampard in 2020. He stayed through the tenures of Thomas Tuchel and Potter too, but it's the former that he looks set for a possible reunion with in Munich.
“My coaching staff wasn’t prepared either, so a big thank you to their families for their flexibility," Tuchel said upon being announced as new Bayern head coach.
