Impact Muniz has completed his surgery, and it has gone successfully, with the forward now focused on recovery. However, he is facing a long absence, as he is expected to be out until February, possibly longer depending his his recovery. This is unfortunate after he had just made his way back from injury, with Raul Jimenez likely to begin at forward in his place.

Set for surgery Muniz (hamstring) is set for a surgery that will keep him out until the start of 2026, the club announced.

Impact Muniz had a hamstring injury confirmed earlier in the week and he's now set for surgery on that. He's going to be out until the beginning of 2026. The hope will be that he's fit and can get a solid run of matches to close out the campaign. He scored and assisted once in seven matches (four starts) prior to the injury.

Impact Muniz would enter the field in the 58th minute as a substitute but would only make it to the 75th minute before he would have to be taken off, with the forward suffering yet another injury. The club will have him in for testing immediately, as injuries continue to be an issue for the forward, just returning from a four-game absence. He will hope the international break is enough time to recover from whatever discomfort he is experiencing, as he is set to see decent time when fit.

Impact Muniz hasn't played since Sept. 20 due to a muscular injury, and the manager said he has no timetable for his return. He hasn't even returned to training, so he's going to be sidelined for a few more weeks -- even in the best-case scenario. Muniz has one goal and one assist across five appearances (four starts) this season.

Impact Muniz was known to be out until the international break but is now going ot miss further time, as the forward is likely to continue to miss out after the break as well due to his injury. This is a rough development for the forward, as he was earning a starting role to begin the season. That said, this will likely set him up for a return around the start of November, potentially missing a month due to his injuries.

Signs extension Muniz has inked an extension with Fulham, according to his club.

Impact Muniz is sticking around Fulham for a few more seasons at least, with the forward inking a deal with the club through 2030. This comes as he earns a starting role this season, notching one goal and an assist through five appearances (four starts) this season. He recorded eight goals in only eight starts last season (31 appearances), so he will look to bring more success to the club following his extension.

Impact Muniz was a surprise absence Sunday, with it no clearer when he suffered the injury, as it occurred last match against Brentford, forcing him off the field in the 80th minute. With Raul Jimenez (groin) also out, the club could be in trouble at forward. He will hope this is a quick turnaround, facing Bournemouth on Friday, with Adama Traore, Kevin and Samuel Chukwueze possible replacements if he remains out.

Missing from squad Muniz is out for Sunday's match against Aston Villa due to undisclosed reasons.

Impact Muniz is not on the team sheet Sunday in a surprise move for the forward, missing out despite no prior notice.

Provides assist in derby Muniz assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 victory versus Brentford.

Impact Muniz provided the assist for the equalizer before linking play in the buildup to the 40th-minute winner two minutes later, feeding Alex Iwobi centrally before the final pass found Harry Wilson. He later had a powerful finish ruled out after a VAR review for a foul in the build-up, denying him Fulham's fourth. Muniz worked the Brentford back line with hold-up play and runs into the channels but couldn't find the back of the net just like his four last outings, having scored only once in the opener against Brighton this season. He will hope to score his second goal of the season against the Villains on Sunday.
