 * Keep. Passes WP:ATHLETE by playing for El-Olympi in the Egyptian Premier League. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:43, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. Plays for Egyptian Premier League, an Egyptian professional league for football clubs and represents the top flight of Egyptian football. This is the valid reason why PROD was removed. Notable per ATHLETE. --Ilion2 (talk) 17:45, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment do you have a source that proves the Egyptian Premier League is fully-pro? If it isn't - as I suspect - then he will fail WP:ATHLETE. GiantSnowman 08:34, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Do you have a source that proves that the content of Egyptian Premier League is wrong? --Ilion2 (talk) 16:55, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment he's not on this |list Spiderone (talk) 17:23, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment You want to tell us that there are no more than six Egyptian Premier League professional players? And from this six players that are listed on this website, not even all of them are players in Egyptian Premier League. Mohamed Zidan e.g. plays in Germany, Essam El-Hadary plays in Swiss. As far as I know even today there are eleven people in one club, the league consists of 16 clubs, at least in league 2008-09. --Ilion2 (talk) 19:03, 16 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep As he plays in the top league in a major footballing nation that's bigger than the UK. To claim that he isn't notable is WP:BIAS. Nfitz (talk) 01:45, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep athlete who has played in the Egyptian Premier League, which appears to be fully-pro. Jogurney (talk) 04:08, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - the Egyptian League is clearly a notable professional league Eldumpo (talk) 20:11, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
