This one has me baffled - Playing (and scoring seven goals - maybe that's appearances?) for FC Luzern in 2010 or 2011 would have been very notable as they finished second in the Super League that season. The transfer announcement says to Águila linked in the article says he played for Luzern and Kriens, but I can't find anything confirming that he actually appeared for the club online, including in German. If he didn't play for Luzern, he fails WP:NFOOTY based on the information in the article and possibly fails WP:GNG as well. SportingFlyer T·C 20:27, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete on the basis that I also cannot verify the claims he actually played a game in Switzerland - so fails NFOOTBALL, as well as GNG, as far as I can see. Giant Snowman 10:20, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - he exists because he is on Playmaker Stats, which verifies that he was on the books of those clubs. No appearances listed, though, and he isn't on any other database that tracked these leagues. Players often get omitted when they don't make any appearances. Gameday has him but that simply just confirms that he is playing at a very, very low level of Australian soccer and has been for the best part of a decade. Most importantly, WP:GNG looks to be failed here. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 13:45, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
