Unnotable list with poor reference.These type of articles were created previously and also deleted like List of Indian footballers to have played in European Clubs.RRD13 (talk) 08:35, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

Keep The list is notable as it features players who have played for the Indian national team. Moreover, almost one players have their articles created in Wikipedia. All players have made their debut in the I-league. This page mentions such players as notable. Therefore, they are notable. And I have provided references. Moreover, No article can be deleted due to no citations. Please see here. TheProudEditor (talk) 08:46, 21 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Playing in foreign clubs is not something officially recognized stuff.Scoring a hat-trick is officially recognized (therefore notable) and so we have the article List of Premier League hat-tricks.RRD13 (talk) 09:03, 21 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep But, in the article Mohammed Salim (footballer), it is mentioned that he was the first person to play in a European club. Therefore, as per your statement, this line should removed very fast. We also have Category:Indian expatriate footballers TheProudEditor (talk) 09:15, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - WP:LISTCRUFT, no indication that Indian players playing for foreign clubs has received any significant reliable coverage as an overall topic (as opposed to individual players moving). Fenix down (talk) 16:50, 21 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - I am pretty sure a version of this article has been deleted before, and I am also pretty sure these type of articles have been deleted before. It is pure LISTCRUFT. GiantSnowman 08:19, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
