The young Colombian player has not been able to earn a place, the coach of the team spoke about it and it was something that they had already told him before leaving.
Daniel Ruiz’s campaign with millionaires He had ups and downs, with a striking start and with some important appearances, little by little he established himself as a figure of the team and ended with a downturn in football. They were 2 years with a regular level, which could have been more to prevent him from having the problems that are now mentioned from Brazil.
And it is striking that Alberto Gameroin the press conference after the young man left for Santos, mentioned an alleged “fight” that he had so that the footballer did not suffer when he went abroad. Same look as mentioned Odair Hellmann, coach of the new team from Bogota.

DT del Santos spoke of the problems for Daniel Ruiz and Alberto Gamero had warned him
It’s been a month since Ruiz’s arrival at Santos and he has barely added 36 minutes, in a couple of games, coming off the bench. For this reason, after the classic between Santos and Cortinthians, who finished 2-2, questioned the coach of the ‘Santista’ team about the lefty and the answer left many doubts:
“They have to understand various aspects, he is a youngster who comes from another country, he is going through an adaptation process, that he can play on the flank, with a very specific characteristic and we need to visualize all aspects of his game. It is not only the adaptation process, he is a shy young man and we are talking and giving him our full support ”.
But it was not only the aspect of adapting to the new country, he also spoke of problems to fit into the sports theme:

“We are analyzing the equipment for its characteristics. A soccer team is not only made with technique, technique can make a difference, but it must have intensity, competition, duels, many things. And then, there are many players who solve a problem with the ball, but if they don’t give sequence in the passes, in the possession, in the support of the game, in finishing the plays; You are going to start to suffer behind”.
Of course, Odair Hellmann stressed that he is going to give him opportunities and that he hopes that the player can contribute what is expected of him: “So, that is what happens with Daniel Ruiz, with Ángelo, with Lucas Lima. Until now, we haven’t used it much, because we have a more consistent midfield, more goalscorer, with other characteristics.
He is going to have his opportunities, he is going to evolve in that aspect of adaptation. It’s another rhythm and he’s looking for that better rhythm, and when he gets a chance, he’s going to show and help us”.
And those words, undoubtedly, they recalled the press conference that Alberto Gamero gave about the departure of several players and what he said to Ruizwhich caused him problems with the same journalists:
“The fight, for example, that I had with Ruiz and with many of you, when they told me why I was sending him to score. He sent him to score, because, now at Santos, they are going to send him to score. And after Santos, he will go the other way and they will send him to score. That’s what my job is for.”
It should be remembered that Daniel Ruiz is on loan, with a mandatory purchase option, only if he meets a series of conditions and goals. But if at the end of the year he has not played a certain number of games and has not participated enough, the player will be available again for Millionaires. Therefore, what Gamero said that day is very valid and must be taken into account.
