There were rumors linking Marcel Ruiz with Ipswich Town from the Championship in England. However, it was reported that Marcel Ruiz himself rejected the move to Ipswich.

Marcel Ruiz has been linked with a move to Ipswich Town in England, who are set to compete in the Championship next season. Antonio Mohamed, the coach of Toluca, suggested that this might not be the best option for Ruiz and advised him to consider his options carefully. Mohamed stressed that Ruiz should avoid moving to just any team for the sake of relocating to Europe. He indicated that a move to a club that genuinely values him, rather than to a smaller team in Russia or Belgium, would be a better option, particularly with the 2026 World Cup approaching. Mohamed expressed a preference for Ruiz to remain with Toluca unless a more competitive opportunity in a top European league, such as with clubs in Italy or Spain's top division, becomes available.
