Article about a new association football club, founded by a former Chievo player and director, which aims to be an informal successor of A.C. ChievoVerona and is going to play Terza Categoria, the very bottom tier of Italian amateur football (organized at provincial level), and definitely not a fact that makes the club notable. The club has no legal or formal connection to Chievo Verona, and no past history to justify it having its own article. Angelo (talk) 00:06, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no evidence of notability. Giant Snowman 20:38, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify as WP:TOOSOON. If the team should gain promotion to Seconda Categoria, I think that would be enough for notability but it's far too early as things stand. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:13, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @No Great Shaker: Seconda Categoria is the 8th tier of Italian football; only clubs in the top 3 (sometimes 4) tiers compete in the domestic cup. The more probable outcome is that the next season they could try to buy a licence for Serie D, as A.S.D. Città di Varese have done for example. Nehme₁₄₉₉ 13:25, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Nehme. The thing is that we have articles for English clubs as far down as the tenth tier. A phoenix club in Italy would surely gain significant coverage if its team were successful in reaching the eighth tier so I think I'd like this to be saved as a draft until we see how they progress.

@No Great Shaker: The difference is that there are about 160 clubs playing in the English 8th tier, whereas there are almost 3,000 playing in the Seconda Categoria. Nehme₁₄₉₉ 01:02, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to A.C. ChievoVerona which already briefly discusses the club. Nfitz (talk) 22:26, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
