Victor Munoz may have just announced himself as Liverpool’s next long-term right-back

Victor Munoz has been a pleasant surprise for Liverpool supporters who may never have heard of him until the Reds triggered his release clause to buy him from Osasuna in June.

The 23-year-old was not exactly a household name, but, fast, young and well-priced, he looked like being exactly the kind of under the radar addition Liverpool have had success with in the last 10 years.

It is early days, but Munoz is coming good on that promise already. So far, the Spaniard has been mainly deployed as a right winger by Andoni Iraola, and he was again during the win over Brentford on Saturday, in which he excelled.
