Article about a footballer who has played only 5 minutes in the Dutch second-level league. I have found no coverage that suggests it could satisfy the general notability guideline (a few routine blog posts about signing with an amateur club), and we should use common sense in applying the NFOOTBALL test to a player whose professional career appears to have come to an end without really achieving anything notable.

Delete - one substitute appearances a number years ago (to technically meet NFOOTY) is not enough when he comprehensively fails GNG. Some COMMONSENSE is needed here, and plenty of AFD precedent exists to say that barely passing NFOOTBALL is not enough when you fail GNG, see Oscar Otazu, Vyacheslav Seletskiy, Aleksandr Salimov, Andrei Semenchuk, Artyom Dubovsky, Cosmos Munegabe, Marios Antoniades, Scott Sinclair, Fredrik Hesselberg-Meyer, Matheus Eccard, Roland Szabó (2nd nomination), Metodija Stepanovski, Linas Klimavičius, Takumi Ogawa, Nicky Fish and Andrei Nițu, amongst others. The player is no longer with PSV and is playing at an even lower non-professional level. Can readily be restored if he ever reaches fully pro level again.
