A few days after his World Cup triumph with Spain, Fabián Ruiz, the 30-year-old Paris Saint-Germain midfielder, shared his immense joy with PSG TV. Welcomed home as a hero in Los Palacios, the world champion also discussed his historic season with Paris and the support received during the tournament.
Ruiz: “Being a world champion with your country is something unique”
Fabián, what is the prevailing feeling a few days after winning the World Cup?
“I am truly very happy. It’s an incredible feeling. Being a world champion with your country is something unique. We experienced extraordinary moments and received so much affection from the fans. I am very proud to have won this trophy.”
Fabián Ruiz’s joy reflects the significance of this new career milestone. Already decorated with trophies at Paris Saint-Germain, the Spaniard has now added the most prestigious title in international football to his list of achievements. It is a massive accomplishment for a player who has become indispensable for both club and country, and whose technical mastery once again left its mark on this World Cup.
Ruiz: “It’s a year I’ll never forget”
This World Cup caps off an exceptional season on a personal level…
“I couldn’t have dreamed of anything better. With Paris Saint-Germain, we won almost every possible title, and finishing the season by winning the World Cup with Spain is simply incredible. It’s a year I’ll never forget—both with Paris and with the national team.”
Fabián Ruiz has just come through an almost surreal season. His successes in the Paris jersey were followed by a World Cup triumph with Spain, adding an even more spectacular dimension to his campaign. His words also reflect the key role the midfielder has played in PSG’s collective successes; far from merely playing a supporting part, he has established himself as one of the major players of this historic era.
Ruiz: “They sent me messages after every match”
Did you receive messages from people at the club during the competition?
“Yes, a huge number. I received a lot of support throughout the tournament. The President, Luis Campos, the coach, the staff, and everyone at Paris Saint-Germain sent me messages after every match. They also supported my family throughout this journey. I am very grateful to them, and it meant a great deal to me.”
This attentiveness highlights the strong bond forged between Fabián Ruiz and Paris Saint-Germain. The support went beyond the standard congratulatory messages following the final; the management and staff stood by the player and his family throughout his campaign. This close relationship is invaluable as Paris prepares to welcome back a World Cup winner who is happy, fulfilled, and more vital to the project than ever.
Ruiz: “Paris Saint-Germain fans are exceptional”
Many Paris fans congratulated you as well…
“Paris Saint-Germain fans are exceptional. No matter where we play, they are always behind us and never stop cheering us on. Their support is felt on the pitch and drives us to give our best. I want to thank them for all their messages during this World Cup.”
Even while away from Paris, Fabián Ruiz felt the passion of the Rouge et Bleu supporters. His words of thanks show genuine appreciation. After an outstanding team season and a World Cup title, the reunion between the Spanish midfielder and the Parisian crowd promises to be particularly warm. We can’t wait for the season to resume; the World Cup and the title won by Ruiz’s Spain have left fans eager to experience the thrill of competition once again.
