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 16.7 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.
Ruibal is operating at his career peak — the 2022/23 level is the level.
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 (~34), then tapers with age. At 30, Ruibal sits on 16.7, 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.
