Comment I don't know if the Kuwati league is fully pro, but it seems that this club is. Can't see anything that says whether he's played for them or not yet though. I don't think it qualifies for the G4 as he's had several other clubs since the last deletion. Ged UK 10:04, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Kuwaiti league is not currently considered FPL.

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 10:29, 2 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As a result, I don't think this AfD needs to continue any longer, there seems sufficient consensus to indicate that this player is not notable. Fenix down (talk) 09:44, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
