Anthony Barry has linked up with Thomas Tuchel once again by taking over as Bayern Munich assistant coach.
Barry worked under Tuchel at Chelsea and the Englishman has joined his coaching staff at Bundesliga leaders Bayern.
The 36-year-old will work alongside Zsolt Low and Arno Michels, who were also part of Tuchel’s team during his tenure at Stamford Bridge.
Barry has taken on another new challenge just a couple of months after he was named as Portugal assistant head coach.
He had been working under Roberto Martinez with the Belgium national team before the Spaniard’s reign came to an end and he was appointed as Portugal boss.
Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic said: “I’m pleased we’ve managed to recruit Anthony Barry. Anthony completes our coaching staff and is an ideal fit for FC Bayern with his passion and his quality.”
The Bavarian giants were knocked out of the Champions League by Manchester City on Wednesday, but are two points clear of Borussia Dortmund at the top of the Bundesliga ahead of a trip to Mainz on Sunday.
