Per WP:NSOCCER, the relevant notability criterion for this sort of athlete is WP:SPORTCRIT, that is, subject of significant coverage, that is, multiple published non-trivial secondary sources which are reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject. I've searched online for sources that meet this, and I've found precisely zero; I'm finding a couple of trivial mention his Latin name [1] [2], and I'm plainly not able to find mentions of his Amharic name (ፋዓድ ፈረጃ) in reliable sources; he appears to fail WP:SPORTCRIT. The other potentially relevant notability criteria (WP:NBASIC and WP:GNG) have the same standard of multiple independent reliable sources, so he also appears to fail those criteria.

For these reasons, this article should be deleted per WP:DEL-REASON#8, as an article whose subject fails to meet the relevant notability criteria of WP:SPORTCRIT/WP:NBASIC/WP:GNG. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 22:28, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Two international FIFA caps, it might be possible there are sources out there for this, Red-tailed has posted a good AfD here and it's hard to refute his nomination. If anyone finds decent sourcing ping me, otherwise I sadly side with delete per policy. Govvy (talk) 11:41, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. Giant Snowman 20:17, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
