Fails WP:GNG, with both sources linking to the website of a soccer team. Any sources online were just statistics. JML1148 (talk | contribs) 07:08, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I would recommend withdrawing this nomination. The player had a long career in professional football, players of this calibre don't fail WP:GNG. I found two usable German newspaper articles through a quick web search and added them to the article, I'm sure there's more in Turkish. Coverage from before 2010 is likely to be found through offline resources. Kind regards, Robby.is.on (talk) 08:46, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There's definitely stuff here, mistake on my part, and I will withdraw this. I think I made a typo that may have affected my search. JML1148 (talk | contribs) 10:41, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I would be very surprised if someone who made 60+ appearances including Champions League for one of the best supported teams in Turkey would not be notable, and that doesn't seem to be the case here. For instance [1] [2] [3] came up very early in the source search - the UEFA link isn't really sigcov, but his transfer was important enough to be on the UEFA website, for instance.
