Miron Muslic has described Adin Osmanbasic and Eddie Lattimore as 'outstanding in their respective roles' after adding them to his backroom staff at Plymouth Argyle.

Osmanbasic, 30, is taking up the role of assistant head coach, while 32-year-old Lattimore becomes head of athletic performance. That will see Gareth Law revert to his previous position as head of physiotherapy.

Muslic worked with Osmanbasic and Lattimore at his former club, Cercle Brugge. They will join Kevin Nancekivell in making up his backroom staff at Argyle. Both appointments are subject to final visa and work permit approvals, and there is still potential for further additions as well.

Osmanbasic had only been at Cercle since September 2024 after joining them from MLS side Houston Dynamo, where he had been the assistant boss since January 2023.

Lattimore had been Cercle's head of athletic performance since the summer of 2020. He moved to the Belgian Pro League club after two years as head of physical performance at Reading, when they were still in the Championship.

He started out at Tottenham Hotspur as a first team sports science intern and later the academy sports scientist before joining Swansea City in 2017 as assistant head of physical performance.

Muslic said: "Adin and Eddie are two people I know well from my time at Cercle and are outstanding at their respective roles. Both will strengthen the team we have in place and know the way I work on and off the pitch and the footballing principles we want to implement into the team.

"I was keen to bring them to Argyle when I joined but sorting out the logistics of their visa requirements has taken longer than we would have hoped and out of respect for my former club we wanted to make sure everything was finalised properly.

"Adin and Eddie will get to work immediately as we look to face the challenge we all have ahead of us. I am excited to see the impact they have on the squad and want to welcome them both to Argyle."

Osmanbasic posted on X (formerly Twitter): "Today was my final day with Cercle Brugge. I want to thank all of the supporters, staff, and especially the players. I’m so grateful for the memories we all created together from making history in Europe to a true fight each week in the league. I wish you all the best."

He added: It is an absolute pleasure to join @Argyle as assistant head coach. I am very grateful to @MironMuslic and Andrew Parkinson for giving me a chance at such a great club. I can already see the immense passion of the supporters! We will give you our all."

Lattimore will not only serve as Argyle's head of athletic performance but he will also be a first team coach. Muslic said: "Eddie arrived last night (Monday). I picked him up, we already had a nice walk on the coast and a dinner.

"He joined today the first session for us. Eddie was my head of physical department (at Cercle) and we had the highest physical output in Belgium for the last three years, and one of the highest physical outputs throughout Europe so he's a top, top guy.

"He's an expert in his department and the good thing about Eddie is he's also a coach so I can use him off the pitch and also on the pitch so he will give us big value."

Muslic said: "You should know one thing about Eddie. He is considered one of the best physical coaches in Belgium. He could have stayed at Cercle, stayed inside his comfort zone, and signed there for another two, three years and still enjoyed life over there.

"But he chose to leave this all behind and pick up this challenge and to go all in and see us achieve our goal, and that's exactly the spirit we need, towards the new staff members and towards the new players. If we can manage to do this we will be stable and as soon as we are stable we can go outside and attack."
