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 on the grounds that he is signed to an MLS club that he has played pro matches. While true, none of the matches in which he has played were fully pro, and being signed to but not playing for a fully-pro club is explicitly excluded as a source of notability per WP:NSPORT.

Rafhina has played pro matches for fully pro team in Brazil, how can the Paranaense 1st Div. in Brazil not qualify, when USL etc in the USA qualifies. Additionally he scored two goals in an officially sanctioned pro match against another full pro side Iraty. The criteria may need to be re looked at. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.105.84.221 (talk • contribs) 02:23, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete soccer players in Brazil are usually famous, but that one does not seem to be notable to me. Campeonato Brasileiro Série C is actually not professional and not notable. Algébrico (talk) 20:36, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- I'm not an expert on the subject, but a google test wasn't impressive. I also couldn't find any WP:RS. I trust the nominator's judgment, while also echoing User:Phoenix and Winslow's statement that if he makes it into pro league, he can then get an article.
