Chelsea 'left disappointed' by former manager Thomas Tuchel's public declaring of his wish to poach highly-rated coach Anthony Barry to join his backroom staff at Bayern Munich

Chelsea have reportedly been left disappointed by former manager Thomas Tuchel's public declaration of interest in highly-rated coach Anthony Barry.

Tuchel was hired by Bayern Munich on Friday following the club's sacking of Julian Nagelsmann, which came as a significant shock with the side relatively well positioned in the Bundesliga and unbeaten in the Champions League this season as the season enters its final straight.

Having developed a reputation for himself as being a straight talker, which has led to public fallouts at some of his previous clubs, Tuchel was asked in his first press conference regarding the makeup of his technical staff.
