Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
1.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 3 goals and 6 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 58.2, Ruiz carries the 3rd-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Primera Nacional (top 2%). Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90), with a bit more on the ball than most in the role. At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
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 (~43), then tapers with age. At 21, Ruiz sits on 38.8, still climbing toward its peak. The blue line is Ruiz's projected Rating — 58.2 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.
