Club career

Ruiz previously played for Alianza Atlético and Cienciano in the Primera Division Peruana. [1] He scored 18 goals in the 2008/09, although the Belgian league website lists his tally as 17. This is because of an error they make in counting his goal, [2] but failing to add it to his total. Archived 3 March 2016 at the Wayback Machine . His club website also lists 18 goals. [3]

International career

Ruiz played with the Colombia U20 national team at the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship in UAE, helping Colombia finish third by beating Argentina 2–1. [4]
