Brian Barry-Murphy left Manchester City this summer and he has now found himself a new role in football alongside Manchester United icon Ruud van Nistelrooy.
Former Manchester City coach Brian Barry-Murphy has been appointed the new assistant manager at Ruud van Nistelrooy's Leicester City.
The Irishman worked alongside Pep Guardiola to ensure there was a direct link between their academy and first-team at the Etihad Stadium. Having joined City in July 2021, he won two Premier League 2 titles during his time in Manchester before departing in the summer but now, Barry-Murphy, who also has a two-year stint at Rochdale as part of his managerial CV, has found himself a new coaching role in football.
Van Nistelrooy has endured a mixed start to life at Leicester following his appointment on November 29. He won his first match in charge against West Ham, and followed that up with a battling 2-2 draw with Brighton. However, the Foxes have since lost their last two games; 4-0 at Newcastle and 3-0 to Wolves.
