Fabian Ruiz
30-Year-Old
Paris Saint-Germain
Ligue 1
Third midfield starter
Ruiz has been named in Spain's World Cup squad and is expected to be the third starting midfielder alongside Pedri and Rodri in coach De la Fuente's preferred lineup.
ANALYSIS
Ruiz ended a disrupted campaign with PSG, making 20 Ligue 1 appearances and nine Champions League outings for two goals and five assists combined after a knee injury sustained in January kept him sidelined for several months. The midfielder was one of Spain's standout performers at Euro 2024 and brings the ability to contribute goals, assists and intelligent pressing from a box-to-box position that makes him a different and complementary profile alongside the more positional Rodri and technical Pedri. Ruiz heads into the World Cup having had limited minutes this season but with the experience and quality to deliver when it matters most on the biggest stage.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Barcelona keeping close tabs
Fabian is one of the options Barcelona are looking at to bolster their midfield depth, according to Jordi Gil of Mundo Deportivo.
ANALYSIS
Barcelona are lacking depth in midfield, especially after the departure of Ilkay Gundogan and the season-ending injury sustained by Marc Bernal. It's unclear if Barcelona will try to make a move in January or if they'll wait until the summer, but they need to do something before this issue becomes even more complicated. Fabian has seen his playing time shrink at PSG, and he would be open to return to Spain if he can play regularly.
