Aitor Ruibal is a 30-year-old full-back at Real Betis, rated 48.7 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 276th of 389 in the La Liga. An experienced operator, he has been a regular starter this season (65% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.37 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ruibal.
Judged on this season alone, Ruibal graded 30 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 32nd of 65 of the 65 full-backs in the La Liga, on 5 clean sheets and 3.374 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 17 → 30). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 49, 42nd of 65 of the 65 full-backs in the La Liga. At 30 Ruibal is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 44.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Ruibal missed 6 games through injury and 1 suspension (leg, knee, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 27 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
A career still climbing — Ruibal is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
3.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 4 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 48.7, Ruibal carries the 42nd-highest potential of the full-backs in the La Liga of 65. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~90), then tapers with age. At 30, Ruibal sits on 44.8, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Ruibal's projected Rating — 48.7 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
