Miron Muslic: Plymouth Argyle appoint Austrian boss to succeed Wayne Rooney

Plymouth Argyle have appointed Miron Muslic as their new head coach.

The 42-year-old Austrian succeeds Wayne Rooney at the Championship’s bottom club and has signed a three-and-a-half year deal.

Muslic was most recently the manager of Belgian side Cercle Brugge from September 2022 until his sacking last month.

The Bosnian-born former forward – who played much of his career in Austria – is the first-ever foreign manager or head coach to be employed by Argyle.

“Miron had a clear vision of how he wanted to take Argyle forward and showed a depth of tactical awareness that made it clear exactly how he wanted the team to set up and play,” chairman Simon Hallett told the club website

“He comes with glowing reviews from his time at Cercle Brugge where he took a team from a lowly league position to European football which is no mean feat.

“I want to welcome him to the club and look forward to seeing him have an immediate impact on the team.”

Argyle’s interim manager Kevin Nancekivell will be part of Muslic’s backroom team, with other coaching roles to be announced at a later date.

He will be in the stands for Saturday’s FA Cup third round tie at Brentford before taking charge of his first game on Tuesday night when the Pilgrims host Oxford United in the Championship.
