Juan Muñiz Gallego (born 14 March 1992) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Greek club Volos FC as a left winger.

Club career

Born in Gijón, Asturias, Muñiz was a product of Sporting de Gijón's prolific youth academy, Mareo. The 17-year-old made it to the reserves during the 2009–10 season, with the side playing in Segunda División B.

Muñiz made his debut with the first team on 16 May 2010 in a 0–2 away loss against Racing de Santander, thus becoming the second youngest player ever to debut in La Liga for his hometown club, at the age of 18 years and 63 days.[2] Shortly after being definitely promoted to the main squad, he scored his first professional goal, the last in a 2–3 Segunda División home defeat to Real Murcia on 25 August 2012;[3] on 5 August of the following year, he was loaned to fellow league side CD Mirandés in a season-long deal.[4]

On 8 July 2015, after achieving promotion to the top level by appearing in 29 matches and scoring three times, Muñiz renewed his contract with Sporting until 2018.[5] On 8 January of the following year, after being rarely used during the campaign, he cut ties with the club and moved to Gimnàstic de Tarragona shortly after.[6]

On 13 July 2018, free agent Muñiz signed a two-year contract with fellow second division side CD Lugo.[7] On 14 August of the following year he terminated his contract with the club[8] and, three days later, joined Volos FC of the Football League (Greece) on a two-year deal.[9]
