The Athletic <\/a>have provided a bit more meat to the bone surrounding Victor Munoz. Because, who is this 22-year-old Spaniard that Liverpool have all of a sudden swooped in to sign? I know that’s the question I’m asking.<\/p>\n

The Osasuna winger is currently on international duty at the World Cup alongside the likes of Lamine Yamal and Rodri. His seven goals and five assists in all competitions earned him a place on the plane to North America.<\/p>\n

The Athletic have described him as a “throwback winger” who is “pacy, skilful and energetic”.<\/p>\n

It is also noted that he does like running at the full-back to the byline.<\/p>\n

Traditionally, Liverpool have opted to go for versatile forwards that can be multi-functional across the frontline.<\/p>\n

Munoz appears to fit the bill with experience playing left and right wing, primarily playing on the left for Osasuna with three goals in 18 appearances from that position with one in 10 from the right.<\/p>\n

In an era where there are pizza charts, stats and expected whatever you fancy floods the perception, the initial statistics don’t appear to be too appealing. But you have to look at the creativity and see to what degree he was creating because it all depends what was on the end of the crosses in reality. Also worth noting, Osasuna finished outside the relegation zone on goal difference.<\/p>\n
