Nottingham Forest complete Daniel Munoz deal for £22m from Palace

Nottingham Forest have completed the signing of Daniel Munoz from Crystal Palace for £22m, according to BBC Sport. The right-back is Forest’s latest addition at the City Ground and arrives to strengthen their options on the right side.

Munoz has put pen to paper on a three-year contract after spending two and a half years with Palace. During his time at Selhurst Park, he made 109 appearances and scored 11 goals. He is also a proven winner, having won the Belgian Cup with Genk before moving to England.

Reuniting with Glasner

The move brings a reunion with the man who coached him before: Munoz will link up again with Oliver Glasner at Forest, having shared success together at Palace, including winning the FA Cup and Conference League.

His signing follows Forest’s aggressive summer spending, after the £50m club-record arrival of Liam Delap. Munoz could also be in line to make his Premier League debut against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, the report adds.

Munoz said he is excited by the quality within the squad and is confident he can help his new teammates. Forest’s chief football officer George Syrianos added that Munoz has performed strongly in the Premier League and in European competition and that the club believes his mindset and ambition will make a meaningful impact.

Forest were left with a tough start after losing their opening two Premier League games and a Carabao Cup tie at Leeds, though they followed that up with a 2-2 draw at Liverpool on Saturday.
