Former Barnsley assistant manager Andreas Winkler has joined Jan Siewert's backroom staff at Huddersfield Town.

The 49-year-old has switched the League One Tykes for the Terriers and the Premier League, leaving his position as Daniel Stendel's number two after seven months at Oakwell.

The German has worked with Town's new head coach at Rot-Weiss Essen previously, where Siewert was manager and Winkler was director of football.

The coach began his playing career at Bayern Munich in the early 90s and played for a number of German league sides before retiring whilst at RW Essen in 2004.

Winkler will travel with the Town squad to Portugal today for a four-day training camp under the new head coach, with the Terriers' next game coming at home to Everton on Tuesday.
