De la Fuente heaps praise on Ruiz and Torres

Two Paris Saint-Germain players received praise from Luis de la Fuente. Asked by L’Équipe, the Spain manager was particularly complimentary about Fabián Ruiz, 30, a PSG midfielder, and Ferran Torres, 26, a forward for the Parisian club.

De la Fuente: “They are players of an immense level”

“Fabián, who has been nominated for the Ballon d’Or, is in his position, along with Pedri, one of the best in the world. And Ferran is one of the players with goals-per-game statistics that almost nobody in the history of the national team has had. They are players of an immense level.”

Those are particularly strong words from the Spain manager. By placing Fabián Ruiz alongside Pedri among the benchmarks in his position and highlighting Ferran Torres’s historic efficiency with La Roja, Luis de la Fuente above all confirms the status both Parisians have now attained. Two world champions who now occupy an important place both with Spain and at Paris Saint-Germain. You can still sense that De la Fuente is riding the wave of their current performances and Ballon d’Or nominations.
