A Chelsea manager has been ordered to stay away from the club's training ground as talks over his future continue.
Anthony Barry, 36, played for Accrington Stanley, Yeovil Town, Chester City and Wrexham in the lower divisions before becoming a manager.
He started with Wigan Athletic and spent three years there before joining Chelsea in 2020. Barry also worked as an assistant for the Republic of Ireland and Belgium national teams - most recently Roberto Martinez in Portugal .
The former midfielder's coaching ability is highly regarded, with former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel keen to recruit him from his former owners after taking over at Bayern Munich. “My coaching staff is not ready either, so a big thank you to their family for their flexibility,” he said during his official launch.
"Arno Michels and Zsolt Low, who have worked with me for more than ten years, will be there. We hope to add Anthony Barry, who is currently at Chelsea."
According to The Telegraph's Matt Law, Barry was keen to link up with Tuchel during his second stay in Bavaria.
A compensation offer has been made but he is still under contract at Stamford Bridge at the moment and Chelsea have asked Barry to stay while negotiations continue.
He was sidelined with Portugal when Martinez won his first two games, but will not work alongside Graham Potter at Cobham until the situation is resolved. Meanwhile, Chelsea will be disappointed when Tuchel is openly interested in adding Barry to their behind-the-scenes squad.
