"She is not very well known": this Parisian judges Ligue 1

After La Liga and Serie A, Fabien Ruiz discovered in 2022 League 1. A “not known” championship.

The Parisian climate disrupts Fabien Ruiz. Arrived at Paris Saint-Germain in 2022, coming from Naples, the midfielder took a long time to win in the Parisian midfield. The Spaniard justifies this by a difficult climate and complicated teams to play.
“It was difficult for me to adapt, especially with the climate”he justifies in an interview with Jorge Valdano on Movistar+

Before being recruited 22 million euros by the capital's club, Fabien Ruiz had evolved in the heat of Andalusia with Real Betis, then under the Soleils of Elche (southeast of Spain) and in Serie A (south of Italy). Playing in Ligue 1 was a new adventure for him. “The teams are very physical and fast, that's the difference here in France. The league is not very well known, but when we arrive here, we realize how difficult it is ”he explains.

LDC, a goal

The 28 -year -old midfielder is today a must in the Paris eleven. Winner of Ligue 1 (2022-2023, 2023-2024) and the Champions Trophy (2023-2024, 2024-2025) with double recovery as well as the Coupe de France (2023-2024), he now has the C1 online. “The club has been winning for a few years, but it still has a thorn in the foot, the Champions League … Our goal is to write history with PSG”he hopes.
