Overview

• Miron Muslic, 42, is expected to sign a contract until 2027 to take over as Schalke 04 head coach on May 30.
• His departure from Plymouth Argyle after only four months in charge triggered a public statement of frustration from the English side.
• He led Cercle Brügge into the UEFA Conference League last summer, marking his most notable coaching achievement.
• Since 2019, Schalke have cycled through 12 head coaches, with Huub Stevens, Matthias Kreutzer and Jakob Fimpel each serving two interim spells.
• The club hopes Muslic will bring long-term stability and guide a promotion campaign after finishing 14th in the 2. Bundesliga last season.
