 * Keep as Olympians are usually considered notable enough to be included, and also there is this: https://www.fifa.com/tournaments/mens/mensolympic/montreal1976/teams/1889839, which proves he was in the Olympics. Antonio The Crazeee Cannonball! Martin (que?) 00:50, June 22, 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment Not only a two-time Olympian, but a member of of the Cuban team that won the gold medal three times at the Central American and Caribbean Games and a silver at the Pan American Games too. Possibly some coverage of him in Spanish. For example, this mentions he was part of "a group of seasoned coaches and former athletes" working in a school/youth soccer programme in Cuba.

 * If participation in the Olympics does not make a person notable by default, then trivial mentions about the Caribbean Games and work at school/youth soccer programme do not make it all the more. Сидик из ПТУ (talk) 15:36, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * @Lugnuts: we need to find reliable sources that indicate that he did win a silver medal at the Pan-Ams. I think if we do, then that would make him pass without (much of) an argument. Antonio my nephew's uncle Martin (que?) 04:08, June 23, 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Being an olympic competitor is noit, contrary to what the editor above claims, enough to make someone notable. Our guidelines are very explicit that only those who win a medal at the Olympics are notable enough for Olympic competiton per se to justify an article. There is not enough sourcing here to pass GNG, which is the standard we use for non-medaling Olympic competitors, so we need to delete the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:33, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 19:44, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete He lacks the sourcing for an article and I see nothing to automatically grant him notability. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 13:26, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
