Tottenham Hotspur keeping tabs on Spanish star Fabian Ruiz
According to Foot Mercato (h/t Spanish publication Fichajes), Tottenham Hotspur are keeping tabs on PSG midfielder Fabian Ruiz who has caught the eye playing for an impressive Spain side at the Euros 2024.
Ruiz has been around for a while but it’s in this Euros that he has caught the eye with his incredible performances in midfield. The Spanish midfielder has constantly chipped in with goals and assists and has been in top form.
Spain have arguably been the best team in the Euros so far, with electric performances from their wingers Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams. Not many fancied them as favourites going into the tournament but they look like the team to beat so far.
According to the aforementioned Fichajes report, three clubs have expressed interest in signing the 28-year-old including Tottenham. The other two clubs are from his homeland – Atletico Madrid and Real Betis.
Although Ruiz features fairly regularly for PSG under Luis Enrique, he is not the first name in midfield. With his performances for Spain in the Euros this time around, the ex-Napoli man has shown he deserves to be a star in midfield.
At Tottenham, Fabian Ruiz would fit into Ange Postecoglou’s system seamlessly. The likes of Pape Matar Sarr, Rodrigo Bentancur and Yves Bissouma performed well last season but Fabian will be an upgrade on all of them.
However, we must not get ahead of ourselves. There is no clear indication yet that we will make a move for the PSG man this summer. Let’s remember one thing – Fabian Ruiz will not come cheap even if PSG decide to sell.
The 28-year-old is a very different kind of Spanish midfielder in comparison to the usual ones the nation tends to produce. He is more physical and box-to-box. This isn’t to say that he isn’t technical though as Fabian Ruiz is a joy to watch with the ball at his feet.
