Two Paris Saint-Germain players have drawn praise from Luis de la Fuente. Speaking to L’Équipe, the Spanish national team coach was particularly complimentary regarding Fabián Ruiz, the 30-year-old PSG midfielder, and Ferran Torres, the 26-year-old forward for the Parisian club.
De la Fuente: “They are players of immense quality”
“Fabián, who is nominated for the Ballon d’Or, is—alongside Pedri—one of the best in the world in his position. And Ferran is a player whose goals-per-game ratio is unlike almost anyone else’s in the history of the national team. They are players of immense quality.”
These are particularly strong words from the Spanish coach. By ranking Fabián Ruiz alongside Pedri as a benchmark in his position and highlighting Ferran Torres’s historic efficiency with La Roja, Luis de la Fuente underscores the stature these two PSG players have achieved. They are champions who now hold key roles for both Spain and Paris Saint-Germain. That said, it is clear that De la Fuente is taking current form and the Ballon d’Or nominations into account.
