At almost 20 years old, Kays Ruiz-Atil is having an eventful start to her career.
After making a promising debut at PSG, under the orders of Thomas Tuchel (7 games in Ligue 1), the young attacking midfielder made the choice last year to return to Barcelona, his former club, which he had left in 2015 to go to Paris.
But not everything went as planned for him in Catalonia.
While he had signed up for the next three seasons, with the hope of gradually pointing the tip of his nose in the first team, the French international under 20 ran into difficulties until until his contract is terminated at the beginning of May.
An inevitable outcome, in reality, after a season where the native of Lyon ultimately played very little.
We will remember only one appearance in the professional group (without coming into play) and eleven small meetings disputed with the reserve team.
This adventure behind him now, Kays Ruiz-Atil wants above all to bounce back, and despite the interest of foreign clubs, he has chosen to return to France.
Indeed, as reported this Tuesday by Foot Mercato, the former Parisian hopeful will engage freely with AJ Auxerre, just promoted to Ligue 1. The player, seduced by the speech of coach Jean-Marc Furlan, is already there.
He must sign in the next few hours a contract until 2025.
