Early career

After starting his footballing career with Leyton Orient, Munns joined Tottenham Hotspur at a young age.[2] After failing to make a breakthrough at Tottenham, Munns joined League Two side Aldershot Town on a one-month loan deal.[3] However, Munns failed to make an impression under manager Dean Holdsworth, and therefore returned to North London without a senior appearance to his name. On 30 June 2013, Munns was released at the end of his contract with Tottenham.[4]

Preceding his release from Tottenham, Munns joined Championship side Charlton Athletic on a one-year deal.[5] Following an impressive season playing for the Charlton Athletic youth sides, Munns was allocated the squad number 27, for the 2014–15 campaign.[6] Although, Munns appeared on the Charlton bench several times, he failed to make his professional debut under managers Bob Peeters and Guy Luzon.
