Fails WP:LISTN as these people have not been discussed in detail as a group or set by any WP:RS. Also see strong consensus for deletion at the very similar list Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of European Cup and UEFA Champions League winning players.

- Delete - fails WP:LISTN. No indication that the subject has been discussed in WP:RS, it's just a list made up for WP, which is WP:OR. Jacona (talk) 19:11, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
- Delete doesn't meet WP:LISTN, and all the same reasons as mentioned at the European Cup/Champion's League list AFD. Just because other random long lists exist on Wikipedia, that doesn't mean this one should, per WP:OSE. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:38, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Keep How is this original research? It's pretty straight forward as a list. The Champions League one got deleted about what? ListN? When you have sources like [1], [2], [3] and so on. You have the UEFA Cup, Europa League with [4], [5], you have the snippet of Guinness World Record, for JOSÉ ANTONIO REYES who won five medals. The most any player has. You have articles from goal.com like Europa League: Which Nigerian players have won it?, others articles that point to Top 10 players to win most league titles in elite European leagues. To say this fails WP:LISTN is utter rubbish. I do not see a real valid reason for the deletion of this article, the Champions League one is covered even more and that got deleted! Why? It did not fail LISTN. Are you guys going to delete List of UEFA Cup and Europa League winning managers next?? Govvy (talk) 17:04, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- Much of what you mention above would be more appropriate for UEFA Cup and Europa League records and statistics. Not one of these sources justify nor do they support the inclusion of an article on an exhaustive list of footballers that have featured in a UEFA Cup/Europa League winning team.

- Delete as per consensus is similar AfD. fails WP:LISTN. LibStar (talk) 02:16, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
- Possibly merge or keep. Are the rosters of the winning teams covered elsewhere in the encyclopedia? This would seem to be encyclopedic information if split out into individual teams for each winning year. (which would be covered as a group in sources) If we already have the winning team rosters on other pages this seems redundant and should be deleted. If not, perhaps this material should split out into relevant articles. (such as the articles on each team? or maybe the season?) If there isn't a target for these, I think there is a good argument to be made that this is a useful navigation page which would pass WP:LISTN.4meter4 (talk) 02:23, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
