Bayern Munich are ready to turn the screw on Chelsea over their interest in Julian Nagelsmann.
Nagelsmann, sacked by Bayern and replaced by Thomas Tuchel, is currently on gardening leave with his contract running to 2026.
And Bayern intend to use Chelsea's interest to push for a deal over assistant coach Anthony Barry, who is a target for Tuchel.
BILD's football chief Christian Falk reports: "Bayern is more than aware that Chelsea is used to paying large sums for coaches. Graham Potter's €17m price tag is the second most expensive coach after Julian Nagelsmann.
"Another subject in these talks will be Anthony Barry. Bayern made a six-figure bid for the assistant coach, who wants to join Thomas Tuchel at Bayern.
"Graham Potter gave him the personal green light to go to Munich, but he has since been fired. Chelsea turned down Bayern's first offer. Bayern will not forget that if there will be further negotiations regarding Nagelsmann."
