Article previously deleted at AfD as the subject failed WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. There has been no change in the subjects notability, he still hasn't played in a fully professional league and does not have enough significant coverage to pass GNG. Kosack (talk) 09:59, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - He has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 13:54, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete - Fails our criteria for the notability of football players, in addition to not passing our general notability criteria. I say weak delete because there has been coverage, although the coverage is routine, meaning that there is less reliability to them. If there was a bit more coverage, this article would likely be able to be saved. RileyBugz ^会話 _投稿記録 19:09, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 08:53, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. He fails WP:NFOOTY, but there's a decent amount of coverage at youth level that might contribute to WP:BIO. E.g. lengthy feature on 15-year-old (regional newspaper), experience of racism (national paper), touring with Man Utd U16s (regional), but turning them down and going to Fulham instead (national tabloids), "first African-born player to captain Ireland" (national), etc. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 09:03, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTBALL having never played in a competitive match between two clubs from fully professional leagues. LTFC 95 (talk) 11:33, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
