article should stay. he is a member of AC Milan's first team. and a member of Portugal's youth teams — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.79.104.170 (talk) 02:33, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Fails WP:GNG and WP:Footy. A player without professional appearance. Wikipeida is not a crystal ball to predict a youth fotoballer would became famous/became professional Matthew_hk   t  c  14:17, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - hasn't actually played in a fully-professional league yet, failing WP:NFOOTBALL; also fails WP:GNG due to lack of "significant coverage" - there is nothing here beyond routine sports reports + transfer news, which violates WP:NTEMP. GiantSnowman 14:44, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - the article asserts its own non-notability. He has not played in a fully pro league and therefore fails WP:NSPORT. There is insufficient coverage for him to meet WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 14:52, 11 July 2011 (UTC)


 * keep As someone already said, "he has signed professional terms and is in the senior squad of AC Milan."

 * Comment In WP:footy it clearly stated "professional" means a player who made his professional debut in a professional league, while WP:GNG is for the genreal news coverage, ongoning afd of Lucas Piazón discussed what is news coverage and for sure you won't saw a in-deapth article in BBC for Ricardo Ferreira had published yet.

 * You are right. Well, the article should be deleted then. I (or someone else) will create the page again once he debuts professionally. Meanwhile, I'm going to copy/paste the stuff.
