Yet by late the following night, the 42-year-old Bosnian-Austrian coach had been appointed by the Pilgrims as their new boss on a contract until the summer of 2028.
Muslic watched from the directors' box when Argyle caused a massive FA Cup upset by beating Premier League club Brentford 1-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium on Saturday afternoon before briefly returning home to Belgium to prepare for his new life in Plymouth.
His introductory Press conference as Argyle's new head coach took place at Home Park yesterday, with his first game in charge coming against Oxford United under the floodlights at the Theatre of Greens this evening.
Talk about a whirlwind few days for Muslic! He was born on September 14, 1982 in the Bosnian city of Bihac but most of his football career, first as a forward in his playing days and then as a coach, has been in Austria.
His first head coach role came at Vienna-based Austrian Second League side Floridsdorfer FAC in 2020 after previously working in the academy at SV Ried.
