Overall: thewillnigeria seem to not have vetted the claim of first few players to play for all three. I note that they have attributed it to a collegue, I know about these clubs and I am not sure if that claim by his collegue is reliable, it may be but cannot say for sure. Due to the lack of vetting by the reliable source, I suggest the ALT0 drop the phrase first few. Playing for all three is also an Interesting DYK. I dont find ALT1 as interesting as ALT0.

Thanks for the review. Added some additional sources for ALT0. the first foreigner to play for Kolkata’s big three clubsTimes of IndiaForward Chibuzor, one of the top early foreigners to play for the city's ‘Big Three’OutlookKtin (talk) 16:35, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
ALT0, WP:TOI is not reliable. It is known to publish unverified claims. Outlook is certainly better. Venkat TL (talk) 16:48, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't feel comfortable with promoting this if that is the case. SL93 (talk) 06:46, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@SL93: Venkat isn't around. Alt0 is not sourced with TOI. --evrik(talk) 14:23, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Evrik: I had totally forgotten this nomination. @SL93: this one should be good to go. Ktin (talk) 16:14, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Reinstating approval. SL93 (talk) 21:54, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
