16 year old youth footballer who fails notability guidelines, specifically subject specific WP:NFOOTBALL in that he has not played a competitive 1st team game and coverage is only general sports announcement type reporting. As not actually achieved anything particularly notable. ClubOranje^T 19:03, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I further the nomination for deletion. When the kid actually makes it onto the reserve squad in a year or two, then give him an article. Right now, he's only a current news story, and really only relevant only to Arsenal and Barca. Ryecatcher773 (talk) 19:06, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 12:38, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I have added references to show he has received coverage in British newspapers Racklever (talk) 14:23, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - he fails WP:NSPORT. Two newspaper sources, one of which fails WP:NTEMP, are insufficient to establish notability under WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 23:51, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete While I'd love to keep it, The fact is it's too premature for him to have an article until he plays for Arsenal or Barcelona try to take Arsenal to court over it (hypothetically) to get the required notability. The C of E. God Save The Queen! (talk) 12:04, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails NSPORTS due to not having played a first team game, fails WP:N as he has not received significant coverage in RS. 143.167.2.191 (talk) 14:06, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
