Jaime Alfonso Ruiz (born 3 January 1984) is a Colombian former professional footballer who played as a forward.
Ruiz previously played for Alianza Atlético and Cienciano in the Primera Division Peruana.[1] He scored 18 goals in the 2008/09, although the Belgian league website lists his tally as 17. This is because of an error they make in counting his goal [1], but failing to add it to his total. [2]. His club website also lists 18 goals. [3]
Ruiz played with the Colombia U20 national team at the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship in UAE, helping Colombia finish third by beating Argentina 2–1.[2]
