Salvador 'Salva' Ruiz Rodríguez (born 17 May 1995) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays for Deportivo de La Coruña as a left back.

Club career

Born in Albal, Valencian Community, Ruiz was a product of Valencia CF's youth system. He made his senior debut with the reserves when he was only 16, playing 19 Segunda División B games in 2011–12 and scoring one goal, in the 2–0 home win against CE Manacor.[1] He appeared in his first official match with the first team on 28 November 2012, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 3–1 home win over UE Llagostera for the season's Copa del Rey.[2]

Ruiz was loaned out to CD Tenerife for the 2013–14 campaign.[3][4] He made his first appearance in Segunda División on 25 August, starting and being replaced in a 0–0 home draw against Hércules CF.[5]

On 13 July 2015, after a further two full seasons with Valencia B, Ruiz was loaned to Granada CF in a season-long deal.[6] He made his debut in La Liga on 24 August, starting and being sent off in the 56th minute of an eventual 1–3 home loss to SD Eibar.[7]

After being diagnosed with aplastic anemia, Ruiz was inactive for more than one year.[8] On 10 January 2018, he signed a one-and-a-half-year contract with RCD Mallorca.[9]

On 7 February 2019, Valencia activated their buy-back clause on Ruiz's contract. The player agreed a deal until June 2023, remaining on loan at Mallorca until the end of the campaign.[10] On 2 September, however, he joined Deportivo de La Coruña of the second division for three years.[11]
