Hi. Creator of the page here. I believe this page should stay as it is maintained very regularly using trusted sources such as national Irish media RTE and regarded sporting outlets e.g. Extratime.ie. The page was made specifically for Daniel Grant as he is a rising star on the Republic of Ireland national under-21 football team and has also been recently named the League of Ireland Player of the Month. All of his stats are verified on sites such as soccerway and livescore and are used in conjunction with another project I've undertaken on Wikipedia for the past number of years, namely the current seasons of Bohemian Football Club. Thank you.

 * A player being listed on Soccerway or their club website isn't generally considered to be evidence of notability. His Player of the Month award is the only thing that comes close to GNG being met but I don't think it's enough. There doesn't seem to be any significant coverage of him in mainstream media. As the nominator has pointed out, this is at best a case of WP:TOOSOON Spiderone  16:54, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
