Delete I was unable to find any WP:GNG or WP:BIO passing coverage of the subject. Winner 42 Talk to me! 01:23, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 06:53, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 11:15, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. Article seems to be a clear case of WP:TOOSOON as the subject is only 16, the article can easily be recreated if and when the subject meets the aforementioned requirements. Inter&anthro (talk) 16:33, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Article makes no indication of signature coverage in reliable sources, and I was unable to independently find any through online sources. Jogurney (talk) 20:36, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I fail to find anything to verify a biograpic entry with. /Julle (talk) 13:54, 17 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article's subject does not appear to be notable enough for there to be a substantial amount of English language sources. Firstclass306 (talk) 23:06, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't necessarily a problem. We don't require sources to be in English – no encyclopedia writing about the entire world can rely on one language to get the information it needs. We merely prefer English sources over non-English sources when they're of equal quality and relevance. Worse, though, is that there doesn't seem to be any substantial amount of sources in any other language either. /Julle (talk) 23:14, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
