The result was delete. Besides WP:FPL, a quick Google search suggest Oman Professional League is still moving towards fully professional status, but is not there yet. KTC (talk) 13:36, 19 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Concern was that the article Fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTY. PROD was contested by the article's creator without providing a reason. Sir Sputnik (talk) 16:20, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 16:33, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - it's about an Omani footballer who has played for the national team. GTVM92 (talk) 19:08, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

While has been called up, he has not actually played any matches for Oman meaning WP:NSPORT does not apply. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:18, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTY as has not played senior international football (he has only been called up to the squad) nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 09:56, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTBALL as he hasn't played in a fully professional league and he doesn't have any senior international caps. IJA (talk) 12:35, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

He is a member of Al-Nahda Club of Oman Professional League, Oman's highest football league this meaning he is a professional player and has played for a professional club in the league. GTVM92 (talk) 19:15, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oman Professional League is not in WikiProject Football's list of fully professional leagues. Therefore, he could play his entire career in that league and never meet WP:NFOOTY unless the league is verified to be an FPL. — Jkudlick ^tc_s 02:55, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Has not played in a fully professional league or in a FIFA Tier 1 match, therefore fails WP:NFOOTY. Insufficient non-WP:ROUTINE coverage to meet WP:GNG. This is WP:TOOSOON. — Jkudlick ^tc_s 02:59, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
