I think the next step was the right one."Speaking to El Correo, Munoz is also convinced he will have few issues adapting to life in England and explained why he found it difficult to leave Osasuna."I'm used to this kind of thing," he said of moving to Merseyside.

"I left home when I was 17. I like new challenges and I'm looking forward to this new experience and these new challenges."It's complicated because when you're so happy somewhere, it's always difficult.

I enjoyed myself immensely in Pamplona and it has brought me this reward which is a World Cup and I will always be grateful."Munoz has yet to feature in the tournament due to injury but recently resumed training and could be in with a chance of gaining his first minutes in Spain's quarter-final clash with Belgium on Friday."I've been in this recovery process for a long time," he said.
