Keep, coverage on page is already significant.--Ortizesp (talk) 20:44, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails GNG with a lack of significant coverage. Unitedinfocus.com and thepeoplesperson.com lack reliability. Dougal18 (talk) 14:45, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - For now. Possibly a case of WP:TOOSOON. He may well go on to have a notable career, possibly in the near future, but at the moment he has not achieved notability. An article can be created if and when he has made first team appearances and gained more coverage. Dunarc (talk) 22:58, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I agree that the article is WP:TOOSOON, but for other reasons I don't accept it. The article has now become significant. Apart from that, I think the sources are reliable, for example Unitedinfocus.com has several experienced authors. Bayu Oktarino (talk) 07:06, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Incubate - Draftify this article for now. It doesn't meet WP Football notability but appears to be a player that will become part of a fully professional team. Demt1298 (talk) 18:59, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relist to see if there is additional support for Draftifying from those advocating Delete.

Draftify: This subject does not meet any notability guidelines now, but may in the future. Per nom, draftify as to save the info until the subject meets GNG. User:Let'srun 23:16, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. AFAICT he signed with United's U18 team, which is too far removed from actually playing for the senior team to justify draftification. He does not meet GNG.

Keep - Per Ortizesp and Bayu Oktarino. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 15:26, 22 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. While there are a few sources whose primary subject is him, I hesitate with the reliability of United in Focus. SWinxy (talk) 23:31, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Just noting that heading into drafts isn't the best solution when WP:TOOSOON, as a few months rarely solves anything. Suitskvarts (talk) 13:03, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
