The article is completely unsourced and does not demonstrate notability. The only sources I could find were brief notations on lists of football players:, ,. I'm not particularly experienced with WP:NFOOTBALL, so I suppose it's possible that he meets that, but it doesn't really seem like it. Aerin17 (talk) 18:01, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep as he passes WP:NFOOTY by having played 1 game in Serie A and two in Serie B. Just needs sources (I'll try to clean up the page). Nehme1499 22:32, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per Nehme. Needs improving, not deleting. GiantSnowman 08:15, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment I am with the nominator here, I don't see much, did he playing more football or just those few games? Probably hard to verify considering the age of the player when he did his career. At the moment this feels like a delete. Govvy (talk) 18:25, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Fenix down (talk) 22:20, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Playing for Inter Milan and other Serie A teams even if for a single match makes him pass WP:FOOTY. References are not where the emphasis should be for a footballer when basic criteria of WP:FOOTY are met, which is this case. Chirota (talk) 01:07, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep He has played for Inter Milan and other major teams which gives him a clear pass for WP:NFOOTY. Although article needs some improvement to be fully compatible with wiki neutrality and guidelines. Riteboke (talk) 14:01, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Passes WP:NFOOTY. Sonofstar (talk) 16:01, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. Passing NFOOTY is great for showing a subject is likely to meet GNG, but AfD is where that GNG-meeting SIGCOV should be demonstrated. NSPORT explicitly says in the FAQs at the top of the page The topic-specific notability guidelines described on this page do not replace the general notability guideline; Wikipedia's standard for including an article about a given person is not based on whether or not he/she has attained certain achievements, but on whether or not the person has received appropriate coverage in reliable sources, in accordance with the general notability guideline; and ...as per Q1 and Q2, eventually sources must be provided showing that the general notability guideline is met. The sources found decidedly fail WP:SPORTCRIT, so it does not matter at all that he trivially passes the football project's criteria since those are strictly subordinate to NSPORT.
