Victor Munoz has laid bare his emotional journey since joining Liverpool, admitting the whirlwind of his £34.5m summer transfer and international involvement at the World Cup has left him in a daze.
The 23-year-old made his competitive debut for Spain in their 4-1 Nations League win over Croatia this week, coming off the bench after missing the tournament proper through injury. He could start against Czechia on Saturday as Luis de la Fuente rotates his squad.
Speaking at a Spain press conference, Munoz said the pace of events had been a blessing. “I think the fact that everything happened so fast hasn’t given me time to fully process it, and I think that’s good for both me and my family,” he told reporters. “You try to enjoy every moment and every stage.”
The winger, who scored on his Liverpool debut against Nottingham Forest in August, highlighted the physical demands of English football. “Where I notice the biggest difference compared to past years is the intensity of the training sessions and all that physical work. Honestly, it’s very demanding over there and it’s helping me grow,” he said. He added he is learning from Spain squad mates including Lamine Yamal, calling it “a full privilege” to train alongside them daily.
