New assistant manager Anthony Barry says the chance to mastermind the England’s shot at 2026 World Cup glory immediately “captured the imagination” of Thomas Tuchel.

The 51-year-old was unveiled as head coach of the Euro 2020 and 2024 runners-up on Wednesday, having agreed an 18-month deal with the Football Association the previous week.

German coach Tuchel is the third non-English full-time manager of the England men’s team and will be assisted by Liverpool-born Barry, who he worked with at Chelsea and Bayern Munich. "The proudest day of my career so far."
