The result was delete. Before anyone starts complaining that a delete WP:NAC is inappropriate, this close is not actually mine. The deleting admin seems to have simply forgotten to close the discussion after deleting the article. Sir Sputnik (talk) 20:32, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

He is still yet to play in a fully pro league, meaning the article still fails WP:NSPORT. Speedy deletion was contested on the grounds that he met WP:GNG over his misreported transfer to Wigan. However, transfer announcements, accurate or otherwise, do not amount to significant coverage, and retractions thereof, in my opinion, do not either. Sir Sputnik (talk) 02:17, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

 * User:Sir Sputnik - GNK Dinamo Zagreb has many players listed as bluelinks. Are GNK Dinamo Zagreb players notable? In ictu oculi (talk) 02:57, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
 * As a rule, yes. The Croatian top flight is fully professional, meaning that a footballer playing in that league meets WP:NSPORT, but he is yet to make his debut for Dinamo. Sir Sputnik (talk) 03:52, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Reports of joining Wigan would only be WP:ROUTINE even if accurate -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:02, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
