Redirect to List of Slovakia international footballers as an ATD. He only played one match at international level, and secondary sources are limited to routine announcements (transfer and injury). ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚｡⋆ 13:37, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Not an exceptional story, but at the same time not a routine occurence either, to go on trial with Leeds United and lose the opportunity because of injury/surgery. [1] [2] [3]. (The injury/surgery cut the international career short too.) Lots of other bits of coverage. Geschichte (talk) 16:39, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep – Per Geschichte sources. Svartner (talk) 00:58, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
SME mentions him going on trial with Matúš Kozáčik but fails short in-depth. 24hod is an injury announcement. Nový čas seems decent but multiple sources that go beyond routine coverage are required for this article to be kept. This seems like another case of WP:LOTSOFSOURCES. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A.

Comment – A single appearance for the national team in a friendly match, where he played 45 minutes without making an impact, and interest from Leeds United do not make him a notable player. Any football club can scout dozens or even hundreds of players, but that doesn't automatically make each of them stand out.--ג'ימיהחיה (talk) 12:37, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per sources/arguments above which show notability. Giant Snowman 16:39, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The previous comment before yours was correct. There are no significant coverage to establish this article's notability. If someone eventually digs deeper for archived ones, I would consider withdraw my nomination. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚｡⋆ 11:18, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The previous comment was irrelevant because it doesn't adress the sources at all. Geschichte (talk) 14:20, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I can assume they referred to the sources you provided. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚｡⋆ 10:07, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep—Per sources presented. Arguments about appearances are immaterial. This is a very bad article, but it appears that the sources to keep it exist. Anwegmann (talk) 20:38, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as he meets Wikipedia’s notability guidelines for athletes (WP:NFOOTY) by playing in a fully professional league--Xrimonciam (talk) 10:06, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
NFOOTY doesn't exist anymore and WP:GNG is the only criteria for this article to be kept. WP:JUSTNOTABLE argument is irrelevant. ⋆｡˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚｡⋆ 12:20, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
