Rodrigo Muniz is in the form of his life
Rodrigo Muniz has been one of the stories of the Premier League in 2024.
After being given a chance to prove himself after Raul Jimenez’s injury, the Brazilian has taken it with both hands and then some. Muniz has found the back of the net seven times in his last seven Premier League appearances, including a brace against Tottenham last time out, with no other player scoring more Premier League goals in 2o24.
This is a stark contrast from his start to life in England, having failed to score in any of his first 10 Premier League matches. This week he faces the league’s leakiest defence in Sheffield United, with 74 goals conceded in their opening 28 games and will be confident of adding to his goals tally at Bramall Lane.
