Daniel Munoz: Crystal Palace wing-back reveals Manchester United dream

Crystal Palace full-back Daniel Munoz has named Manchester United among the clubs he dreams of joining.

The Red Devils currently lack a specialist right wing-back, although Amad Diallo has been very impressive in the role.

Ruben Amorim, as such, could be tempted to add more quality to the position in the future, and Munoz could be a stellar option for the position.

The Colombian right wing-back has been on fire since joining Crystal Palace from Genk in January 2024. Munoz played a starring role in the Eagles’ FA Cup triumph last season and was even named man of the match in the final against Manchester City.

This season, the 29 year old has registered two goals and two assists in 19 games across competitions, all of which were starts.

If United are to reclaim their place among Europe’s elite, they must assemble a squad capable of competing on every front.

With Amorim’s system placing added emphasis on marauding wing-backs, a move for Munoz could make sense.

The Colombian has experience playing in the 3-4-3 system under Oliver Glasner at Crystal Palace and could also hit the ground running with a move to the Theatre of Dreams.

Munoz recently opened up about his ambition, and his words will certainly have United fans excited.

Speaking to AS Colombia, Munoz said that he is working hard to catch the attention of United, Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) and Real Madrid.

“Everything I hear out there, all the talk about one club or another, if you ask me, for me it would be a dream to play for one of these clubs,” said Munoz.

“Whether it’s Barcelona, PSG, Real Madrid, or Manchester United, I work towards that, I strive every day, so that maybe one day I can catch the attention of one of these clubs because it’s a dream for me.

“But the truth is that I’m focused on my club, on doing things well at Crystal Palace, and I’m not really aware of what’s being said on social media.

“I don’t have any information that any of these clubs want me or are interested in me. These days my focus is on Crystal Palace and, obviously, here with the national team.”

Munoz’s contract runs until 2028, so prising him away from Selhurst Park won’t be straightforward. However, the Colombian’s arrival could add another dimension to Amorim’s team and help Amad Diallo operate in his preferred attacking role.
