Delete I can provide many references for this, but the most concern is notability. He is a defender and above all he is playing in the third class football league in his country. — Free E. (talk) 14:31, 7 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Actually, he doesn't fail WP:NFOOTBALL. As the Arabic-language statistical reference in the article states, and Soccerway confirms, he played, once, in the Saudi Professional League for Al-Qadisiyah FC. The Saudi Pro League is listed, albeit under the name of Saudi Premier League, as fully professional at WP:FPL. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 09:29, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Bit slim is it not Struway2 Played once. scope_creep (talk) 16:39, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- It's played twice, actually. For two different teams. My mistake, I didn't check the dropdown menu for any other appearances. But "once" is enough to pass WP:NFOOTBALL. If he doesn't pass WP:GNG, which I'm not competent enough to judge, because I don't read Arabic, then fine. Nominate him for that reason. But it's not a good idea to nominate a subject as failing an SNG if they don't. And you'll also notice that I Commented rather than advocating Keep on a single appearance and no evidence of GNG. Though I might advocate Keep now it's twice for two different teams. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 16:49, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - one appearance more than six years ago (to technically meet NFOOTY) is not enough when he comprehensively fails GNG. Some COMMONSENSE is needed here, and plenty of AFD precedent exists to say that barely passing NFOOTBALL is not enough when you fail GNG, see Oscar Otazu, Vyacheslav Seletskiy, Aleksandr Salimov, Andrei Semenchuk, Artyom Dubovsky, Cosmos Munegabe, Marios Antoniades, Scott Sinclair, Fredrik Hesselberg-Meyer, Matheus Eccard, Roland Szabó (2nd nomination), Metodija Stepanovski, Linas Klimavičius, Takumi Ogawa, Nicky Fish and Andrei Nițu, amongst others.
