Hasan Salihamidžić, FC Bayern board member for sport, 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.”
Liverpool-born Barry was a player himself until 2017 and played in the League One, the third tier of English football. The former midfielder then started as an assistant coach at Wigan Athletic, before joining the staff at Chelsea FC in 2020. He sat in the dugout with Tuchel 99 times for the London club. Their 100th game together will now take place at Bayern Munich.
