Played one game of professional football over a decade ago to scrape a technical presumption of being able to pass WP:GNG but searches of "Радомир Ников" yield very little evidence of notability. A Bulgarian search came back with Via Sport and Darik News as the most promising sources. Both of those, however, are articles in which Nikov is mentioned only once in passing and the depth is sorely lacking as far as GNG is concerned.

Delete - there is longstanding consensus that scraping by on NFOOTBALL with one or two appearances is insufficient when GNG is failed so comprehensively, as is the case here. If sources are found please ping me. Giant Snowman 17:01, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep passes NFOOTY.--Ortizesp (talk) 02:43, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Longstanding consensus regarding WP:NFOOTY is that players that squeak by with 1 or 2 appearances despite thoroughly failing WP:GNG are not notable. Curbon7 (talk) 07:13, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Without prejudice to change vote to Keep if significant coverage is later found. For my search, I was unable to find WP:SIGCOV for the subject, noting that someone with searching skills for Bulgarian/Cyrillic sources might uncover things I was unable to. Until that point, my vote stands as delete. GauchoDude (talk) 14:21, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
