According to Footmercato, Fabian Ruiz doesn't hide his pride at being nominated for the Ballon d'Or. After Paris Saint-Germain defeated Aston Villa 2-1 in the UEFA Super Cup, the Spanish midfielder was interviewed by Marca and spoke about this possibility: "For me, it's an honor to be mentioned on the list."

After a successful season with both Paris and Spain, Fabian Ruiz is already accustomed to his name appearing in discussions. He even started to dream of the trophy: "I hope to win it, why not?" In fact, Fabian Ruiz continues to collect titles. Following his World Cup triumph with Spain, he just won his second consecutive UEFA Super Cup with Paris Saint-Germain.

He didn't return to training until Monday and didn't start the match, but he came on as a substitute for the last 15 minutes. For him, this is a gradual return, and Paris has already started the new season with a new trophy.
