 * Weak delete - I cannot find evidence that he has played in a FIFA "A" international for Benin, although he gets local press coverage for playing the qualifying rounds of the 2012 CAF Champions League with Tonnerre. I suspect the article will fail the general notability guideline and I cannot be certain it satisfies NSPORTS (he apparently played for Sharks F.C. in Nigeria, but I'm not sure it was at a fully-pro level).

 * Comment - if the article is kept, it should be moved to Shakirou Abikoyé according to the Beninese sources I've found above (as well as footballdatabase.eu and transfermarkt.com). Jogurney (talk) 17:15, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment - He has definitely been called up to Benin's national team on several occassions but I can't tell if he's ever played. He's been getting called up since at least 2010 but again nothing indicating he's actually featured. TonyStarks (talk) 19:48, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
