Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails
WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested by an IP on the grounds that he will play for
Portland Timbers. However, there is a long standing consensus against applying
WP:NSPORT prematurely in anticipation of future appearances.

Delete - Fails
NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a
fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy
GNG.

Move to Draftspace There's no policy or consensus-based reason for this article to be kept. However, as he is signed to
Portland Timbers short of a life-threatening injury, it's inconceivable that he won't either be playing there, or in their fully-professional reserve squad
Portland Timbers 2 shortly, and then we'd just have to recreate the article. It's really a waste of everyone's time to be trying to delete players during pre-season, when we are only going to have to recreate them shortly, rather than just having some
WP:COMMONSENSE and waiting a couple of weeks to see how things play out. As such, the article is best moved to draftspace to allow it to develop before it's moved back in a few weeks.

Move to draftspace - It is likely that the subject will play in a
WP:FPL this season, and moving to draftspace is a viable alternative to deletion. Once he plays, then the article can be updated and moved back to mainspace. —
