Plymouth have "reluctantly allowed" head coach Miron Muslic to begin talks to leave the club.

He's wanted by German second tier side Schalke.

Muslic joined Plymouth in January, signing a three-and-a-half year contract, but was unable to prevent their relegation to League One.

'No mention of any issues'

In a statement, the Pilgrims said: "Despite regular communication since the end of the season, and no mention of any issues, Miron has now made it clear that, after extended periods away from his family, this opportunity provides him the chance to be closer to them after four years on the road.

"We are frustrated by this decision, having implemented clear structures, processes and personnel to aid Miron and his coaching staff as we look to return to the Sky Bet Championship at the earliest opportunity.

"Not only that, the club have also moved quickly to bring in new signings and received repeated verbal promises from Miron that he was committed to Argyle and would do everything to help the club bounce back to the second tier.

"Muslic joined the Greens in January 2025, on a three-and-a-half-year contract, after a period out of the game having departed Cercle Brugge. He will now leave Argyle just four months into that long-term commitment.

"We wish him the best for his future career.

"We will be making no further comment at this stage."Plymouth Argyle manager Miron Muslic before the Sky Bet Championship match at Kenilworth Road, Luton. Picture date: Wednesday February 19, 2025.
