Scout report
P. Ruiz is a 27-year-old central midfielder at Los Angeles Galaxy, rated 26.8 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 367th of 506 on scout potential in the Major League Soccer. In his prime years, he has been a fringe squad member this season (11.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.47 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Ruiz.
Judged on this season alone, Ruiz graded 2 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 93rd of 93 of the 93 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer, on 1 goal, 0 assists and 2.466 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 13 → 2). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 27, 74th of 93 of the 93 central midfielders in the Major League Soccer. At 27 Ruiz is in his prime years, and a market index of 5 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.

Outlook
With a Rating of 26.8, Ruiz carries the 74th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the Major League Soccer of 93 — though on just 13 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.47 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
