Ruiz Díaz started his senior career with Estudiantes, following youth spells with Fívica de Gonnet and Deportivo de City Bell.[2] [3] After first appearing as an unused substitute for a 2017 Copa Sudamericana match with Nacional Potosí on 13 July 2017, Ruíz Díaz made his professional debut in the following December during a league win away to Talleres.[1] [4] [5] He made five further appearances during the 2017–18 season.[1] [6] [7]
