Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a football manager who fails
WP:GNG and who has not managed a club in a fully pro league. PROD was contested by the article's creator without meaningfully addressing the concern.

Comment many of those articles may only be routine coverage of him (like the articles announcing him as a new manager).

Comments I am going out on a limb here, but I think he can easily pass
WP:GNG if the article was cleaned up. I've just read through 10 different articles on him regarding his management career, but what is confusing is some of them say he a former professional footballer who played in Portugal, I can't find any evidence online but is it possible he could also pass
WP:NFOOTBALL?

Being manager at Cardiff City would be sufficient for
WP:NFOOTBALL, but he wasn't manager there. He was manager of Cardiff's under-21 team.

Also he may have been professional, but it doesn't appear he played in any fully pro leagues.

Keep I am more than happy with the article now that
Quite A Character has helped clean it up, I will easily say the article now passes
WP:GNG.

Keep Extensive media coverage on his Cardiff City spell (in both Portuguese and English language), but don't know if that's enough to grant article. However, surely his work in the
LigaPro (Portuguese second division, professional level) does? --

Keep article about football manager which satisfies the GNG.
