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 without providing a reason.

Delete: many passing mentions, but no coverage

Keep It is article about international player. According
Wikipedia:Notability (sports) Association football (soccer) figures are presumed notable if they meet the following: Players who have played in any Tier 1 International Match, as defined by FIFA (including the Olympics) are notable. Although U-20 World Cup is not a Tier 1 Competition, but, in my opinion, this is a competition of high international level and player who have played in all 3 matches (for his team) in this tournament may be presumed notable. He also scored first goal of
2015 FIFA U-20 World Cup.

WP:NFOOTBALL explicitly excludes youth football as a source of notability: Youth players are not notable unless they satisfy one of the statements above, or if they can be shown to meet the wider requirements of

Played in this context means appeared in an actual match. As he is yet to make his debut in the MNL, this does not apply either.

Weak Delete - Probably notable per
WP:NFOOTY, but really struggling to find confirmation of this, the comments above suggest that he essentially probably has played for a team in a fully professional league since I think it unlikely someone would play internationally without any club experience at an U-20 level, but are unfounded in the sources available to those not speaking Burmese.
