How good has Daniel Muniz been at Copa America

Colombia are set for a quarter-final on Saturday against Panama in the 2024 Copa America, but thus far Munoz has been excellent.

Playing all three games to date, Munoz has been on the scoresheet twice for his country in the tournament to date.

This has seen him awarded an average match rating of 7.82, a number which places him firmly among the top performers in the entire competition.

The WhoScored rankings have Munoz as sixth highest in the tournament, which showcases just how good he has been and makes the fact Dougie Freedman found the Colombian for just £6.8m is a testament to his quality.

Glasner will also be delighted with how Munoz is doing at Copa America as he’ll be expecting his right wing-back to return to Selhurst Park in top form.
