No assertion of notability - fails Wp:bio. Llajwa 19:15, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep. I can't say I know much about football, but as per a quick Google search, he's played for several professional teams/leagues including Hibernian FC (according to this article ) and captained the B team of Valencia CF,  which would seem to be be enough for him to pass the notability requirements for athletes on WP:BIO.

 * Comment The article about Hibernian says he went there to have a trial, it doesn't say he signed for them or played a match for them...... ChrisTheDude 09:03, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Further investigation reveals that Hibs did not sign him up after his trial. Assuming this is up to date, he has yet to play a match for his current club in Belgium.  So his only potential claim to notability is having played for Valencia and Real Madrid's reserves.  Given that these reserve teams play in the same league system as the first teams, I'm not sure how the notability guidelines work........ ChrisTheDude 09:12, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep needs sources.  needs a rewrite.  Is a notable Spanish player going by http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/h/hibernian/5173506.stm amongst other articles.jonathon 01:09, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep - plays for a professional team. Also, can someone who speaks Dutch translate this page please: . GiantSnowman 12:39, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Has played in a fully professional league (20 mins for Mouscron), so he narrowly meets the notability criteria. I've added an infobox and some additional info to the article. Jogurney 15:00, 29 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep - played 20 minutes for R.E. Mouscron first team against R. Charleroi S.C. on October 5 2007. Player qualifies for notability in WikiProject Football. Ref (chew) (do) 16:29, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
