Abel Ruiz Ortega (born 28 January 2000) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for FC Barcelona B as a forward.
Club career
Born in Almussafes, Valencian Community, Ruiz joined FC Barcelona's youth setup in 2012, from Valencia CF.[1] On 21 November 2016, he renewed his contract with the club.[2]
On 9 April 2017, while still a junior, Ruiz made his senior debut with the reserves, coming on as a late substitute for Jesús Alfaro in a 2–0 Segunda División B away win against CF Badalona; he also became the first player born in the 2000s to make an appearance for the club's senior ranks.[3] He made his professional team debut on 28 August, replacing David Concha in an 0–3 home loss against CD Tenerife for the Segunda División championship.[4]
Ruiz scored his first professional goal on 1 September 2017, in a 2–2 draw against Granada CF.[5]
International career
Ruiz made his debut for the Spain under-17 team on 25 October 2015, starting and scoring the first in a 2–0 2016 UEFA European Under-17 Championship qualification win against Andorra.[6] He was also named in the list for the finals in Azerbaijan,[7] despite being one year younger than his teammates.
Ruiz finished the competition with four goals, being awarded the Silver Boot ; he was also included in the tournament's best eleven.[8] During the 2017 edition in Croatia, he captained the side as Spain achieved his ninth title.[9]
On 22 September 2017, Ruiz was included in Santiago Denia's squad ahead of the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup,[10] and scored two braces in the tournament, scoring two goals in a 4–0 win against Niger on 10 October, and two more in a 3–1 semi-finals win against Mali on 25 October.[11]
