By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
What role should Salva Ruíz have?
Their place is the heart of the defence as CB. A pure centre-back: pair them with a quick one if they lack top speed, and use their aerial dominance at set pieces. They can also play LB and LM. The game also rewards them with roles like Wide back and Fullback, which reinforce that profile.
What are you buying?
Their weapons: strength (70) and jumping (70). That run-of-the-mill strength is their signature.
Do they have weaknesses?
Their weak points: composure (55) and aerial ability (62). Things to keep in mind when building the team around them.
Are they worth signing in Career Mode?
Their market price sits around 561 K€, with 4 K€ in wages. At their age their value only drops: negotiate and don't tie a long contract. They're also out of contract soon (2026), so you can push in talks or grab them almost free at the end of the season.

How high can Salva Ruíz's rating go?

Do they defend the box well?
