Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Fabian Ruiz has opened up about a deeply personal ambition, admitting that he would love to return to his boyhood club Real Betis at some point in his career.

The revelation comes while Fabian Ruiz is enjoying one of the most successful periods of his career. The Spain international has established himself as an elite central midfielder, with his vision, composure and consistency making him an important figure for both PSG and the national team.

Ruiz’s recent achievements underline his rise to the top of European football. During his time with PSG and Spain, he has added major honours to his collection, including back-to-back Champions League titles and a World Cup triumph.

His consistent performances have also been rewarded by PSG, with the club keen to secure his long-term future at the Parc des Princes through a contract extension. Under Luis Enrique, Ruiz has developed into a crucial presence in midfield and has become one of the key figures behind the club’s success across multiple competitions.

Despite his achievements in France, however, Ruiz’s connection with Real Betis remains deeply rooted. The midfielder, who has earned 51 caps for Spain, spent 14 years at the club’s academy and eventually broke into the first team before attracting interest from some of Europe’s biggest clubs.

That long-standing bond has kept the door open to a potential return to Seville. Speaking to the media this week, Ruiz made it clear that his affection for Betis has never disappeared and that returning to the Verdiblancos remains a genuine ambition.

“I am a huge Real Betis fan, everyone knows that. I want to return one day. Now is not the right time because I am happy at PSG. But one day, definitely, yes,” Ruiz said, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.

The midfielder’s comments are unlikely to trigger immediate concern at PSG, given his clear statement that he is currently content in Paris. Nevertheless, they will offer encouragement to Betis supporters who continue to dream of seeing one of their academy graduates return to the Benito Villamarin.

For now, Ruiz remains focused on the present with PSG. But with his emotional connection to Betis still as strong as ever, a return to the club where his footballing journey began could eventually become one of the defining chapters of his career.
