I'm struggling to get this over the WP:V line let alone WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC. He might well be the same player as this guy in Soccerway and Transfermarkt, even though the DOB doesn't match. In any case, the sources found are database sources only and I can't find any evidence that he ever received significant coverage. This isn't surprising considering that he seems to have only ever played in one professional match. The Bulgarian Wikipedia article doesn't offer any evidence of notability either. Footballers are no longer automatically notable for participating in one game and WP:FPL has been deprecated. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 11:20, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - per proposal. (Note that the content of the Bulgarian article had been overwritten back in 2016 with information about completely different football player [1], both under notability limit IMHO.) --Nk (talk) 07:20, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. Giant Snowman 12:00, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
