No appearances recorded on Playmaker Stats or on the unreliable Transfermarkt, the only two databases that seem to feature him, therefore failing WP:NFOOTBALL. The only coverage found, other than brief transfer announcements, were two articles on Sportflames here and here but there is no indication that this blog is reliable. He has zero coverage outside of that one website so I believe that WP:GNG is also not met. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 19:02, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, agreed, fails NFOOTBALL playing only at lower tiers (American Soccer League appearances were outside of that leagues notability per WP:FPL). No other indication of GNG JW 1961 Talk 19:21, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note While an individual player page is not the place for the debate - NISA is recognized and sanctioned by USSF as the same level of the pyramid as USL League One and the defensibility of including one and not the other as a notable football league is not strong. I'd caution against spending much time and effort to pursue deletion of these, when it seems far more likely that the standard will be revised. BigKennyK (talk) 20:14, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@BigKennyK: feel free to start a discussion about the professional status of the league at WT:FPL. Giant Snowman 15:19, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
