You could nominate the older category for a speedy rename. That would facilitate keeping the history of the older category and getting the better name. (and if you decide not to go that route, I'd support a merge and then rename)

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's no need to diffuse this specialty by nationality when there are one or two people in it

Keep. Part of an established category tree. --

That is a circular argument. After the merge very little of the tree will be left.

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. This layer is redundant as it only has Footballers by city or town in the Palestinian territories in it.

The result of the discussion was:merge as nominated.
WP:SMALLCAT has been deprecated, so the balance of arguments as well as numbers favors a merge.

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's no need for a pile of nationality categories with one or two people in them. It's unhelpful for navigation. (And I tried to populate all of the categories, but there just weren't pages to add).

Dual merge per nom. Maybe with the only exception of South Africa, which has two entries, but definitely leaning towards the merge. --

Nominator's rationale: Not a redirect category, and only one article in the category is not a redirect.

Delete per nom, this does not serve navigation.
