Article about footballer who has never played in a fully-pro league (typically as his club's third or fourth goalkeeper). There is nearly no online Portuguese-language coverage of this footballer other than database entries and transfer announcements such as this which explains his club released him mid-season after he wasn't used (and nothing at all which would be in-depth coverage). He has appeared only in Brazilian state championships (Candango 1, Goiano 1 and Paulista A3), the Brasileiro Série D, and a single Copa do Brasil match, none of which satisfy WP:NFOOTBALL.

- Firstly an apology. I misread an appearance in the Copa do Brasil as an appearance in Série A when removing the prod on the article. Secondly, there is a long, long recurring argument at
WT:FOOTY regarding Série C and Série D in Brazil being fully professional or not. Both have identical rules (a certain number of amateur players, under a certain age, can be registered in squads), and yet for historical reasons Série C is on
WP:FPL but Série D isn't. The result of this should either be to add Série D to the FPL or remove Série C from the FPL. Otherwise we are being inconsistent.

- No apology is necessary, as I had to check his career history when doing a WP:BEFORE check in any case. :)
- As far as whether Série C is a fully-pro league, I am very skeptical and believe it should be removed from the list at FPL until we have solid sourcing to support its inclusion. Série D certainly lacks that sourcing as well. Jogurney ( talk) 23:37, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
