Everton send scouts to watch “the flea” in action
Everton have been sending scouts to watch young Real Betis midfelder Fabian Ruiz according to Spanish outlet El Confidencial and could make a €15m raid.
The 21 year old midfielder is nicknamed the flea due to his small stature as a child but he now stands at over 6 foot and is attracting the attentions of a number of top clubs.
Barcelona have been linked with a move for the Spaniard as have Arsenal, Chelsea, West Ham United and Newcastle United.
The report says that the player is keen on staying at Real Betis now he has broken into their side, but money talks and Betis may decide to cash in on their star player who has been at the club since he was 7 years old.
Would the Flea be a good signing?
