Leeds are on the verge of joining the champions

Any potential was unfortunately never realized in Yorkshire as Mujica failed to make a single first-team appearance before being sent back to Spain, where he joined Extremadura, and spent subsequent spells at Villarreal, Oviedo and Las Palmas.

In 2022, he went to Portuguese league club Arouca, where he enjoyed arguably his best professional season to date.
