Daniel Muñoz Mejía (born 26 May 1996) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a right-back or right wing-back for Premier League club Nottingham Forest and the Colombia national team.

A former member of Atlético Nacional's organized supporters' group who was rejected by several clubs as a teenager, Muñoz made his professional debut with Águilas Doradas in 2017 and joined Nacional in 2019, where he became captain. He moved to Belgian club Genk in 2020, winning the Belgian Cup in his first season and finishing as league runner-up in 2021 and 2023. He joined Crystal Palace in January 2024 and, under Oliver Glasner, set up Eberechi Eze's winning goal in the 2025 FA Cup final, the club's first major trophy, and was named the club's player of the season. Palace went on to win the 2025 FA Community Shield and the 2025–26 UEFA Conference League, and in August 2026 he rejoined Glasner at Nottingham Forest in a deal worth up to £22 million.
