The result was Delete. It's been established that the subject doesn't meet WP:NFOOTBALL (not yet, anyway) and nobody has argued that he meets WP:GNG. The article can be restored or recreated if that situation ever changes. Hut 8.5 21:01, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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 on the grounds that he plays for a Serie B club. While accurate, this does not confer notability as he has yet to actually play in Serie B, meaning the article still fails WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 15:23, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Being on a squad is not enough, he needs to play. GiantSnowman 17:08, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - he is still young and will play soon (User talk:Svk fan) 20:34, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Svk fan: Speculation as to future appearances is never grounds for notability, and WP:NFOOTBALL explicitly excludes youth footballers. Also, please do not !vote more than once. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:20, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Now he is with Slovakia U20 team ^[2] if he will cancelled now, it will be needed to create him again soon again, and I am curious who will do... (User talk:Svk fan) 21:30, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - per WP:TOOSOON very few footballers pass WP:NFOOTY & WP:GNG before the age of 20. Article can always be recreated or undeleted in the future. Inter&anthro (talk) 21:17, 11 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
