Does not meet WP:GNG, I was not able to find any additional independent coverage beyond the one secondary source cited in the article ([1]), which provides a brief announcement of the subject's trade from Palmeira to Valmiera. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 20:22, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Per [2] [3] [4] [5]. Satisfactory WP:SIGCOV from reliable sources. Svartner (talk) 01:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Those don't appear to generally be independent RS. The first one is affiliated with his club, the second doesn't publish a masthead and appears to primarily be a gambling site, Verdazzo is a group blog (see [6]). The last one, Gazeta Esportiva seems ok, although the prominence of gambling and advertising links on the site isn't a great look. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 15:15, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Verdazzo has no direct connection with SE Palmeiras, and even though it originated as a blog, currently provides very in-depth informative coverage of players. Goal.com also has no relationship with betting sites. They are reliable sources, and demonstrate that Ruan Ribeiro's numbers in the youth categories are significant to support an article. Furthermore, there are even more complementary sources from more famous sites like Lance! [7] and Placar [8]. Svartner (talk) 18:24, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per sources above which show notability. Giant Snowman 12:08, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Per above. Young player with ongoing career alrady with decent sources. Article needs improvement, not deleiton. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 11:00, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: per above, pick any three or a combination, I think this passes GNG. // Timothy :: talk 03:27, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
