Club career
At 18 years of age, Muñoz made his league debut with Boca Juniors during a 0–1 defeat to Estudiantes de La Plata during the 2009 Clausura tournament.[2] He had, however, previously played with the team during the 2008 Copa Sudamericana. Subsequently, he suffered a cruciate ligament injury to his knee, which stalled his progression in the team.[3] He returned to the field during the 2010 Clausura, during a 2–2 draw with Argentinos Juniors.[4]
In August 2010, Serie A club Palermo announced the signing of Ezequiel Muñoz from Boca Juniors.[5] He made his debut with the Sicilian club on 26 August 2010, when he was picked as a starter in the return leg of the 2010–11 UEFA Europa League play-off round against NK Maribor.[6][7] He debuted in Serie A on 29 August 2010 against Cagliari.
On 2 February 2015, Sampdoria confirmed that they had taken Muñoz on loan.[8] After only four matches, on 18 July 2015 he signed a 4-year contract as a free agent for Genoa.[9]
On 8 August 2017, Muñoz switched teams and countries again, signing a three-year deal with La Liga side CD Leganés, for a rumoured fee of € 2 million.[10] Ten days later he made his debut for the club, starting in a 1–0 home win against Deportivo Alavés.[11]
On 12 June 2019, Munoz signed with Argentine side Lanús.[12]
On 26 September, Munoz signed with Argentine side Independiente.
On January 14, 2022, he signs a contract with Estudiantes de La Plata.
International career
In 2009, Muñoz was called by the Argentina national team coach Diego Maradona for a friendly match against Panama in a squad exclusively formed with footballers based on the Argentine league. Nonetheless, he had to be left out after suffering the cruciate ligament injury to his knee.[13]
