Crystal Palace wing-back Daniel Munoz has admitted that playing for Manchester United would be a 'dream come true'.

The defender has been at the heart of all things good for Oliver Glasner's men over the past year and assisted the winning goal in Palace's famous FA Cup win over Manchester City in May.

He scored six goals and racked up eight assists across all competitions last season - form that reportedly seen him attract interest from the likes of Barcelona and Champions League winners PSG over the summer.

Munoz, who was also part of Palace's Community Shield-winning team at the start of the season, most recently featured in the 0-0 draw against Brighton before being called up by the Colombian national team for a round of friendlies.

And when asked about the links to bigger European sides by Colombian outlet AS, the 29-year-old did not shy away from offering his true feelings about a potential future switch.

'First of all, I think there’s a lot of talk about one club or another,' Munoz said. 'If you ask me, it would be a dream come true to play for one of these clubs, whether it’s Barcelona, ​​PSG, Real Madrid, or Manchester United.'

He continued: 'I think I’m working towards that; I strive every day to one day attract the attention of one of these clubs, because it’s a dream of mine to get there.

My focus is on Crystal Palace; we’ll see when the winter transfer window gets closer. Right now, I’m fully focused on these two matches with the national team.'

Munoz penned a four-year deal after making the move to Selhurst Park from Belgian side Genk in January 2024.

He arrived with the reputation of being a goal-scoring defender, having scored 35 times with all of his clubs before arriving in the Premier League.
