Daniel Munoz - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Brings dynamism on right flank Munoz has been named in Colombia's World Cup squad and is expected to be one of the most dynamic and productive outlet on the right flank throughout the competition.

The versatile defender brings blistering energy, a clinical eye for goal and the experience of winning the UEFA Conference League with Crystal Palace, combining elite defensive solidity with a genuine attacking threat that few right-backs in the world can match. Munoz heads into the World Cup as one of Colombia's most important players and a genuine match-winner capable of deciding games from his position on the right flank.

Provides assist against Brentford Munoz assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and three chances created in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Brentford.

Impact Munoz set up Adam Wharton's go-ahead goal, collecting the ball on the right side of the box before laying it back for Wharton to smash home. He also came close himself, getting denied by Caoimhin Kelleher from the left side of the box and later firing over in the closing stages, wrapping up the match with one assist in a sharp, disciplined wing-back performance. On top of the end product, he was heavily involved all game, finishing with three chances created, three tackles, and seven clearances in a true two-way shift.

Impact Munoz made the match interesting in the second half, scoring and reducing the deficit to a single goal. The wing-back was good throughout the match and is always threatening on the ball. He caused issues for the backline with his pace and creativity, and eventually got his reward with his only shot on goal.

Keeps clean sheet Monday Munoz registered six crosses (zero accurate) and two tackles in Monday's 0-0 draw against West Ham United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 92nd minute.

Impact Munoz kept his 10th clean sheet of the season Monday, recording seven clearances, two tackles and one interception on that end of the pitch. On the attack he recorded six crosses, his second most in a match this season, though he failed to record an accurate cross or create a chance in his 90 minutes on the pitch.

Plays 60 minutes Thursday Munoz took two shots (one on goal) and made three clearances in 60 minutes as a substitute during Thursday's UEFA Conference League win over AEK Larnaca.

Impact Munoz was fit enough for limited minutes after overcoming a shoulder injury, but he still saw plenty of action as the game ended up going to extra time. He's the team's ideal right wing-back option when available, so he should eventually be favored over a more offensive Brennan Johnson. In that case, Munoz could be reliable for both attacking and defensive production while he aims to add to his three goals and two assists in the 2025/26 EPL season.

MARCH 19 • ROTOWIRE

Fit for action Munoz (shoulder) is an option for Thursday's match against Larnaca, according to manager Oliver Galsner. "Daniel is fine to play."

Impact Munoz is no longer injured and seems to be in the clear for European play, a major addition back for the club. The major question will be how much time he can receive, as the club will likely want to get their crucial midfielder back on the right flank immediately, typically a starter when fit. He still has yet to miss a start this season when fit, creating an even bigger chance that he will be an option from the starting XI immediately.

MARCH 18 • ROTOWIRE

Still not an option Munoz (shoulder) is out for Sunday's match against Crystal Palace.

Impact Munoz is not yet an option and looks to be saved for another match, with the defender not being risked due to his shoulder injury. He will now look to return in their game before the international break, potentially being held out until after the break to be cautious.

MARCH 15 • ROTOWIRE

Remains questionable to face Leeds Munoz (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's match against Leeds United, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "It's more likely [he plays] than yesterday! It's still a question ma...

Impact Munoz will need some testing after training Saturday, with the defender set to be a late call for Sunday. This comes after he potentially returned too early in league play over the weekend, only playing 14 minutes before he exited, unable to play in Thursday's Conference League match. If he is an option, a start will likely follow his availability, having yet to miss a start in 21 appearances this season.

Targeting Sunday return Munoz (shoulder) is ruled out for the Conference League first leg against AEK Larnaca but hopes to return for Sunday's clash against Leeds United, according to coach Oliver Glasner...

Impact Munoz will miss Thursday's Conference League first leg against AEK Larnaca due to a shoulder injury but is working toward being available for Sunday's clash against Leeds United. The right wing back is an undisputed starter and an important piece in his team's attacking setup, regularly pushing forward to provide options for his teammates. He has recorded three goals and two assists in 21 Premier League appearances this season.

MARCH 11 • ROTOWIRE

Participates in training Munoz (shoulder) was back in training Monday, according to his club.

Impact Munoz is making some early progress after a shoulder injury last week, as the wing-back has already linked up with his teammates in training. This is massive news for the club after he was only available for 14 minutes in his last outing, as they should earn a regular starter soon, likely in the next week. He remains a solid two-way player who sees plenty of time on the ball, recording three goals and an assist to go along with nine clean sheets.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Forced off Thursday Munoz abandoned Thursday's clash against Tottenham with an apparent shoulder injury.

Impact Munoz played just 14 minutes before being replaced by Nathaniel Clyne against the Spurs. The Colombian international, who has made seven consecutive EPL starts, is now at risk of missing upcoming games due to this issue. In that case, Clyne will likely take his place in the initial lineup.

MARCH 5 • ROTOWIRE

Five tackles in clean sheet Munoz generated two crosses (zero accurate) and five tackles in Sunday's 1-0 victory against Wolverhampton.

Impact Munoz had limited impact going forward, attempting just two crosses without a shot or chance created. Defensively, however, he was outstanding. He led his side in both tackles with five and clearances with seven, while also adding two interceptions.

FEBRUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Creates four chances Munoz took an off target shot, crossed seven times (two accurate) and created four chances during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest.

Impact Munoz finished with the second most crosses on the team while leading Palace with four chances created during the draw. The wing-back has made two straight starts since returning from a knee injury totaling 166 of a possible 180 minutes in those two matches.

Impact Munoz has finally ended his absence, lasting over a month due to a knee injury, not just an option, but finding the starting XI immediately. He will now return to his regular role on the right, one of the better wing-backs in the league. He had five goal contributions in 14 appearances before the injury, likely to add to that tally again soon.

Option for Sunday Munoz (knee) is an option for Sunday's match against Chelsea, according to manager Oliver Galsner. "Dani came back at the beginning of the week. Dani was so pleased that he can tra...

Impact Munoz was already eyeing a return against Chelsea around a week ago, but that has been confirmed this week, as the midfielder has now trained for the past week. This is massive news for the club after a month and a half without their starter on the right flank, starting in all 14 of his appearances while recording five goal contributions. That said, he should return to that role almost immediately, sending Nathaniel Clyne (groin) back to the bench.

JANUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Eyeing return against Chelsea Munoz (knee) has trained and is eyeing a return against Chelsea on Jan. 25, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "Dani has had one training session so far, but will be back next w...

Impact Munoz is still recovering but is on the brink of being an option, with the defender back in training this week. That has led to his expected return next outing when facing Chelsea, a massive return for the club once he is an option. A spot on the right should immediately be open for the Colombian once fit, sending Justin Devenny back to the bench.

Pictured out on run Munoz (knee) posted a picture to his Instagram go him running Monday night.

Impact Munoz has been out for around a month while he received surgery on his knee and is now seeing an update, as the defender took to his social media to show a picture of him running. This leaves the defender in a good spot, as he was likely to near a return to end January, only a few weeks away. Training at his club and with his teammates should soon follow, with the club waiting for the return of their main right midfielder.

Set for surgery Munoz (knee) is set for surgery on his knee, per manager Oliver Glasner."Always when you undergo surgery, you never know. We are always cautious. It doesn't look so serious."

Impact Munoz is set for a knee surgery and is set for a spell on the sideline. Glasner gave no update on the timeline for his recovery, but the fact that it doesn't look serious is a great sign that it's not going to be season-ending. Nathaniel Clyne will need to play a larger role with Munoz sidelined during one of the busiest parts of the year.

He sees Nathaniel Clyne take his role on the right flank Sunday, hoping this absence doesn't last longer than a match.
