Brayan León Muñiz (born 19 October 2000) is a Colombian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Independiente Medellín.[1]

Career

Leon began his career with Deportivo Pereira in 2021, and he was part of the team that won the 2022 Torneo Finalizacion title on penalties against Independiente Medellin. Atlético Junior took notice of his performances with Pereira, where he scored eight goals in fifteen games, and signed him in January 2023. [citation needed]

However his form declined at Junior, where he made 18 appearances but did not score any goals. After Diber Cambindo's exit from the club shortly after the 2023 Apertura tournament concluded, Independiente Medellin signed him as Cambindo's replacement on 17 June 2023.[2]

On 19 November 2023, he scored the winning goal in a 2–1 victory over rivals Atlético Nacional in El Clásico Paisa.[3] On 23 October 2023, he scored the winning goal in a 1–0 victory over his former club, Deportivo Pereira.[4] On 3 December, Leon scored a brace in a historic 5–0 victory against rivals Nacional, helping El Poderoso reach the finals.[5]

On 4 November 2024, Leon scored a brace including a last-minute winning goal in an away victory against Atlético Bucaramanga.[6] Leon was a key player for the club in the 2024 Copa Sudamericana, scoring six goals in ten matches, with a notable goal in a 2–1 home victory against defending champions Defensa y Justicia.[7]
