Fabian Ruiz, who was still being tipped to leave just a few days ago, is now reportedly on the verge of extending his contract with PSG. An incredible turnaround, as everything seemed to point to an imminent separation.
This weekend, Luis Enrique pointed the finger at the many fake news stories surrounding the Parisian club… and the Fabian Ruiz case would be one of the best examples. Under contract until June 2027, the Spanish midfielder could ultimately commit to the long term in the capital.
