Contested prod, I was going through the list of articles creations from and accidentally prodded twice. Google returns around 400 results searching his name in English, can't verify that he meets the criteria of WP:NFOOTBALL or WP:GNG. nn123645 (talk) 17:39, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep - He's played in the fully-pro Thai Premier League for Pattaya, and I've added one source which verifies this. I'm struggling to find much coverage of his time in Ivory Coast, but it appears he played for Africa Sports National's first team before moving to Thailand.

 * As far as I can tell that source only shows he is on the team. Do you have a source that shows he has played in a game? Searching his name in Thai might produce more results but I'm having difficulty finding sources. --nn123645 (talk) 19:38, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * It reports that he collected 9 yellow cards - that's not possible unless he played at least a few matches. In any case, here is a google translated page which shows he played in a match. Jogurney (talk) 20:01, 29 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Keep - per source added by Jogurney. The source states that he has played in the Thai Premier, which means he meets WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:01, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep passes WP:NFOOTY and is now verifiable. J Mo 101 (talk) 12:00, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
