Delete Never played in a FPL so fails WP:NFOOTY Seasider91 (talk) 15:55, 27 May 2016 (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) 19:43, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 07:06, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep/Comment Hasn't the subject of this article played for the national team? It does not say so in national football teams.com but is mentioned in the French and German Wikipedia versions. Inter&anthro (talk) 14:59, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Inter&anthro: - and where are the reliable sources in those articles supporting those claims (ie that he actually played)? Giant Snowman 15:07, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There a fare share of sources and websites that mention him as an international footballer, but none show any proof of what games he actually played. In all likely hood it was probably an unofficial friendly or something of the sort. The player probably fails WP:NFOOTY. Inter&anthro (talk) 20:51, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete does not pass the notability guide for association football due to know appearances in a fully professional league or international matches. I haven't found any sources that indicate the subject passes the general notability guideline - Yellow Dingo (talk) 12:20, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - unless solid evidence comes up that he has been capped fully, he fails NFOOTY Spiderone 12:49, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as there's simply nothing at all convincing for independent notability. SwisterTwister talk 06:47, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
