It capped what was a highly successful season for Luis Enrique’s side, who also won the Ligue 1 title, the Coupe de France, and the Trophée des Champions, as well as reaching the final of the FIFA Club World Cup, before losing to Chelsea.

Ruiz has now set out his grander ambitions at PSG during an interview with So Foot. “In football, the hardest thing isn’t getting to the top but staying there,” began the Spaniard, who missed out on the current international break with a minor niggle.

He added, “The challenge for us is winning [the Champions League] twice, three times, or four times. It won’t be easy, but who knows? What is certain is that we will do everything to get there.” PSG have won both of their Champions League games this season, the latter coming courtesy of a late Goncalo Ramos winner against Barcelona.
