Crystal Palace’s flying wingback Daniel Muñoz has unashamedly hauled himself into the shop window during November’s international break, revealing it would be his “dream” to join a club like Manchester United, Barcelona or Real Madrid.
Muñoz has not always been destined for greatness. The Colombia international didn’t leave his domestic league until 2021 and was 27 by the time Crystal Palace whisked him away from Belgian side Genk for €8 million (£7.1 million, $9.3 million) in 2024. It hasn’t been a straightforward international trajectory: Muñoz’s debut lasted three minutes before he was shown a straight red card against Peru.
