Vincent Guerin: Fabian Ruiz’s quiet influence key to Paris Saint-Germain

Vincent Guerin says Fabian Ruiz’s understated contribution remains highly important to Paris Saint-Germain as they prepare to face Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday.

“Ruiz is not too noticeable, but he is very effective,” said the former Paris Saint-Germain player, highlighting the Spain midfielder’s value to Luis Enrique’s side.

Ruiz played a significant role in helping Paris Saint-Germain win the Champions League last season. He also became a world champion with his national team.

The midfielder has since been included among the nominees for the Ballon d’Or, although he is not regarded as one of the leading contenders for the award.

His next challenge comes when Paris Saint-Germain meet Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday.
