Daniel Munoz Joins Crsytal Palace From Genk
Premier League side, Crystal Palace has completed the signing of Colombia right-back, Daniel Munoz from Genk on a three-year deal worth 8m euros (£6.8m) with a further year option.
The 27-year-old moved to Belgium in 2020, winning the Belgian Cup in his first season.
“It’s a pleasure for me to be here at such a historic club, such a big club as Crystal Palace,” he said.
“I’m very excited, very happy, and I can’t wait to be on the pitch.“
There were reports that Munoz had gone on strike at Genk in the hope of forcing through a move to the Premier League side.
Munoz, who will join compatriot Jefferson Lerma at Selhurst Park, has played 17 league games this season, scoring a total of five goals and supplying one assist.
Palace chairman Steve Parish said: “We are delighted to welcome a player of Daniel’s quality and character to the club.
“He has experience at the highest level for club and country, and he possesses an impressive record going forward for a full-back.
“I am certain his ability, athleticism, and tenacity will be a huge boost to the squad for the remainder of the season, and beyond.”
