Was previously a WP:A7 by User:ArsenalFan700 but got declined. The article does assert that he passes WP:NFOOTBALL by the skin of his teeth but I can't find any solid evidence. No appearances logged here, here or here. I could not find anything to suggest that he could pass WP:GNG either. Spiderone 13:06, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Yeah, it is hard to find anything on him since he played in the I-League at a time where coverage was really small, especially for reserves and the like. here is one article showing that he played in an I-League match against Dempo for Mohun Bagan. Article does need to be redone however. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 14:09, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm presuming that that must have been the game where he made his sole top flight appearance, since the article states that he only played one game before moving to United Sikkim Spiderone 14:32, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely wasn't his only first-team match. This, admittedly a blog so can't be used but just for this discussion on just having 1 game, shows that he played in another game against HAL. I can also find a lot of actual sources on him being an unused sub in the Federation Cup. But yeah, as of now, he is super, super fringe passing WP:NFOOTY. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 17:09, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - there is consensus that scraping by on NFOOTBALL is insufficient when GNg is failed so comprehensively. Giant Snowman 14:23, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
