Oliver Glasner wants the band back together, and Daniel Munoz has made it clear the feeling is mutual.
Forest have submitted a bid worth up to £22m for the Crystal Palace wing-back, with Ornstein reporting the offer on 27 August, and the two clubs are now in talks with Tuesday's deadline bearing down.
Palace, who paid Genk just £6.9m for Munoz in January 2024, have already signed Anan Khalaili for £21m to fill the gap on the right, which tells you everything about how seriously they are treating this departure.
The Football Whispers Index scores every transfer rumour across five weighted factors. Read how it works here.
Daniel Munoz to Nottingham Forest rated ‘Very likely'
Football Whispers Transfer IndexDaniel Munoz to Nottingham Forest
82/100 TPI Very likely Forest's £22m bid is under consideration, the player has told Palace he wants to reunite with Oliver Glasner, and Palace have already signed his £21m replacement. Updated 28 August 2026 Financial viability20 / 25 Buying club need15 / 20 Player motivation10 / 15 Selling club incentive13 / 20 Market momentum17 / 20 Financial viability20 / 25 Forest's £22m bid represents roughly 9% of their reported £222m annual revenue, comfortably within range for a club that spent £45m on Liam Delap this same window. Munoz earns £60,000 a week at Crystal Palace, well below Forest's highest earner Morgan Gibbs-White on £110,000, leaving plenty of headroom in the wage structure. Forest's squad cost ratio sat at an estimated 75% heading into the season, though heavy summer spending on Delap, Ousmane Diomande and Xaver Schlager will push that figure higher before the new SCR rules take full effect in 2026/27. Munoz's contract runs until 30 June 2028, with Palace holding a club option for a further year, giving the Eagles leverage but not an impregnable position. Buying club need15 / 20 Ola Aina started both of Forest's opening Premier League matches at right wing-back and is the only specialist in the position, with Nicolo Savona primarily a centre-back who can cover. Munoz created 27 chances and eight big chances in the 2025/26 Premier League, compared to Aina's nine chances created and zero big chances, registering more than double the expected assists per 90 (0.15 to 0.05). Munoz recorded four goals and three assists from right wing-back last season, contributing seven goal involvements to Aina's zero from the same position. At 30, Munoz fits the immediate competitive profile Forest are building around Glasner but is not a long-term asset alongside the younger signings (Diomande 21, Delap 23, Savona 23) in the squad. Player motivation10 / 15 Forest (Opta global rank 32) and Crystal Palace (Opta global rank 30) sit within two points of each other, making this a sideways move in competitive terms, though Forest offer Europa League football. Munoz told Crystal Palace he wants to move to the City Ground after Glasner spoke to him directly, with TEAMtalk reporting the player is actively pushing for the transfer on 28 August. Glasner and Munoz worked together at Selhurst Park from January 2024 to May 2026, winning the FA Cup, Community Shield and Conference League in that time. Selling club incentive13 / 20 Palace signed Anan Khalaili from Union Saint-Gilloise for £21m and agreed a deal for Zavier Gozo from Real Salt Lake, both capable of filling Munoz's role on the right. A sale at £25m would return a profit of roughly £18m on the £6.9m Palace paid Genk for Munoz in January 2024. Munoz registered four Premier League goals, three assists and a 7.15 FotMob rating in 2025/26, his most productive season at Selhurst Park, making this peak selling territory for a player who turned 30 in May. Palace are not under financial pressure to sell, with Pierre Sage's squad rebuild well underway and the club's £73m wage bill manageable against their revenue base. Market momentum17 / 20 David Ornstein reported on 27 August that Forest submitted a bid worth up to £22m (£20m plus £2m in add-ons), with Palace considering the offer. Graeme Bailey at TEAMtalk reported on 28 August that the two clubs are in talks, with “growing confidence that an agreement can be reached” before Tuesday's deadline. Colombian journalist Julian Capera reported on 27 August that Everton have also submitted a formal offer on similar terms, creating a bidding contest with Forest. Palace set a £25m asking price through journalist Pipe Sierra on 18 August, with Everton, Tottenham and Forest all making approaches at the time. The verdict82 / 100 Ornstein-level reporting of a submitted bid, a player pushing to leave, and a selling club with the replacement already signed put this firmly in Very Likely territory, with only a £3m fee gap left to bridge. It happens if Forest raise their bid to somewhere near Palace's £25m valuation before Tuesday's deadline, which the current trajectory of talks suggests they will. It dies if Palace hold firm on £25m and Forest decide the Javi Rueda alternative from Celta Vigo represents better value, or if Everton convince Munoz that Goodison Park is the better destination.Hence then, the article about daniel munoz to nottingham forest will move for 22m crystal palace defender happen football whispers index score was published today ( ) and is available on Football Whispers ( Middle East ) The editorial team at PressBee has edited and verified it, and it may have been modified, fully republished, or quoted.
