 * Keep Plays for a club in the Ghana Premier League, the highest association football league in Ghana. --Ilion2 (talk) 05:17, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment So? Are we going to start saying players playing at the highest level in Tanzania or Western Sahara are notable? No, the league must be professional. Spiderone (talk) 08:33, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment This is a disussion about a player in the Ghana Premier League, not of Tanzania or Western Sahara. The Ghana national football team is four times winner of the African Nations Cup and played in the FIFA World Cup. --Ilion2 (talk) 15:57, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
