 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep Fails WP:NFOOTY since the Irish league doesn't qualify, but long term players in the Irish league frequently can pass WP:GNG and with Holohan's transfer rumours being reported nationally I think he easily passes WP:GNG after my before search.

 * Weak keep per 's rationale. While "played [..] in a competitive game between two teams from fully-professional leagues" (of WP:NFOOTY) is not met, there does appear to be some coverage (in national outlets) beyond the usual "match report" style coverage (suggesting WP:GNG is perhaps met). It's not overwhelming coverage. Hence the "weak" qualifier. But there has been sustained coverage, where the subject has been a primary topic, spanning some years.

 * Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Routine news about transfers/rumours does not constitute "significant coverage". GiantSnowman 19:56, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep After a google search and reviewing some of the refs, I feel there is enough to just pass GNG in my opinion. Govvy (talk) 20:17, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Weak keep Has enough to scrape by WP:GNG, but needs more content relevant to the subject and sources aside from transfer news. sixty nine   • whaddya want? •  21:27, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - Neither league meets WP:NFOOTY requirements re. fully professional but there is at least some broader coverage. I'm no advocate of excessive coverage of sports people, but I also see no reason not to keep and improve viable articles already worked on.SeoR (talk) 09:46, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment has added more citations to the article.  sixty nine   • whaddya want? •  06:18, 17 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep While Holohan fails WP:NFOOTY, there are other notable Irish players who have passed WP:GNG. Following some updates to the article, I feel Holohan has enough notability to pass GNG. Poolie22 13:52, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
