 * Weak Keep An interesting one, this. Clearly fails NFOOTY, and the Newcastle United profile page is very light on information; however, Here Is The City Sport did a fairly decent length piece on him, and a Eurosport official blog also gives him a paragraph. There's also a fair few local sources that could be used to add to the article, particularly this Sunderland Echo source, which isn't routine at all (game didn't involve Sunderland, so it is noteworthy that they'd choose to cover a Newcastle United player) and is pretty decent. I'm inclined to say Weak Keep based on these things, or at least userfy it somewhere. Luke no 94  (tell Luke off here) 23:15, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 12:47, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. There is certainly some coverage, but I am not convinced that there is either a sufficient level of reporting on the player or that it really goes much further than routine "look out for this promising young player soon"-type journalism.

 * Delete - He hasn't played in a Fully professional league and he doesn't have any senior international caps either therefore he fails WP:NFOOTBALL. IJA (talk) 19:48, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. There are absolutely no reliable third-party sources, and there is no indication that the subject meets notability guidelines. An internet search did not turn up any major mentions. -- Biblio worm  17:03, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
