Within the article, the teenager is called a ‘special’ player by Omar Tapía, an Under-20 coach at Club Santos Laguna.

By the sounds of it, he’s a huge prospect, who the Mexican club would’ve preferred to keep.
However, his contract decision took the power out of their hands.
Nevertheless, their loss is Newcastle’s gain – hopefully, Muñoz can replicate what Munez did on Tyneside in the Goal trilogy.
