No indication he has played in a fully professional league. John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:48, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy Keep Article clearly needs expanding but a quick google shows he has played in Ascenso MX [1] and thus passes WP:NFOOTBALL --- PageantUpdater (talk) 22:41, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, the reference in the article proves that the subject has played in Ascenso MX – the second tier of Mexican football - which is listed in WP:FPL, passing WP:NFOOTBALL. Suggest the nominator re-read WP:BEFORE. Hack (talk) 05:06, 28 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - 13 appearances in Ascenso MX listed in WP:FPL meeting WP:NFOOTBALL. Nfitz (talk) 14:19, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak delete - I can't find any significant coverage of this footballer. It's clear he played a few matches in the Ascenso MX, but his football career appears to either be over or he is now focused on beach soccer (which garners far less coverage). I'm not convinced this article would ever satisfy the GNG - he's mentioned in a handful of match reports (receiving a red card, making the substitute's bench, etc.), but it's entirely routine coverage.

• Keep Passes WP:NFOOTY. Notability is not temporary. He was notable when he made his debut, and he's still notable now. Smartyllama (talk) 17:30, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • NOTTEMPORARY isn't relevant here. It only applies once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" - and nobody has put forward evidence that this footballer ever was the subject of significant coverage. Jogurney (talk) 17:45, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - He does seem to meet the notability criteria for WP:NFOOTY. CAPTAIN RAJU (✉) 16:22, 5 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - meets WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 19:53, 5 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
