Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league or for his country's national team. PROD was contested by an IP without providing a reason. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:29, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep - Player does appear to have played internationally according to this. Slightly confusing situation as there seems to be questions around the romanisation of his name. NFT has this player who shares the same birth date, so I assume is the same individual. Appears to have made one substitute appearance for Lebanon and so passes WP:NFOOTY. Just!

 * Keep - appears to meet WP:NFOOTBALL, needs improving to meet WP:GNG. GiantSnowman 09:43, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. The friendly he allegedly played in took place; Al Ahram, The Daily Star, Soccerway. I can't find a list of teams and substitutions though. I don't think Transfermarkt can be considered a reliable source. Someone more used to searching for Arabic sources might find something. Walls of Jericho (talk) 22:43, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. I found the Egypt squad announced for the match here, although it's described as a "reserve team". Unless we can establish that this guy played in the match, the article may have to go. C 679 09:06, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment. Ok I found a match report with his name and a profile there too. Is that WP:RS? C 679 09:11, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
