Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested by the article's creator without providing a reason. Sir Sputnik (talk) 16:51, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Are you sure these players are not professional? I took a look at the articles and they seem to suggest that they might be. But I am not an expert on international soccer. -Ad Orientem (talk) 17:08, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Player has not played in fully professional league, nor played senior international football, so fails NFOOTY. No indication of any other achievements garnering significant reliable coverage to achieve GNG. @Ad Orientem:, none of these players play in a fully professional league (though the ythemselves may well be professional players, this is not relevant), nor have they played senior international football, so fail WP:NFOOTY. There is consensus at WP:FOOTY that youth international appearances do not confer notability. The sources in the articles addtionally are merely routine sports journalism.
