In response to what transpired on Friday night, Jefferson Lerma has already messaged one Crystal Palace teammate.
The statement was posted on Instagram by Crystal Palace No. 8.
Which player from Crystal Palace did Jefferson Lerma contact? Let’s examine this.
Daniel Munoz receives a telegram from Jefferson Lerma
After Daniel Munoz scored the game-winning goal against Spain on Friday, the Colombian international sent him a message.
Nestor Lorenzo started Lerma and the £6.8 million January signing from Genk in the Colombian starting lineup for their friendly match against Spain at the London Stadium.
Munoz scored a spectacular goal in the 61st minute to give Colombia the victory. Munoz had incredible agility to leap into a scissor kick after Luis Diaz, the No. 7 for Liverpool, sent a great cross to the back post.
Following the friendly in east London, Lerma used the same emojis that Munoz used to characterize himself as a warrior to write “♔️🔥” in the post’s comments section on Crystal Palace No. 12.
The man from Amalfi received a message from the previously mentioned Diaz as well. He wrote, “golazooo🔥👏🏻❤️” after his fellow Colombian finished off his cross with skill.
It looks like Crystal Palace has struck gold.
It looks like Dougie Freedman did it again.
After acquiring players like Michael Olise and Eberechi Eze for extremely low prices, the Glaswegian has drawn interest from Manchester United and now seems to have pulled off yet another brilliant transfer.
Munoz, as previously mentioned, only cost £6.8 million in January—a strikingly low price for a 27-year-old with 24 caps for his country.
Because of his unwavering sprinting, the South American has also shown no signs of failing to adapt to life in England and is already beginning to emerge as a fan favorite at Crystal Palace.
Munoz’s boundless enthusiasm even allowed him to come up with an assist for Jean-Philippe Mateta during the 1-1 draw with Luton Town.
We are in for a big treat if this is the kind of transfer that Crystal Palace supporters can anticipate seeing more of this summer. Freedman, please accept your award.
