• KEEP - He played for the national team and is a top division player in his country. That's as high as you can go for being a player in a native league. Additionally, I was able to find other sources within seconds.KatoKungLee (talk) 16:21, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

None of those points are relevant to WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC. Having reviewed all of the sources added, none of them show significant prose coverage. In fact, most are database sources, which are specifically excluded from conferring notability by SPORTBASIC. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:09, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

St. Kitts and Nevis has 2 newspapers, a small population and limited internet reach. I don't know what kind of coverage is to be expected of someone in that situation. There's not much more he can do that be a top division player and play for the national team. He's in 8 databases or so and has been mentioned multiple times. ESPN or whatever has never covered a player from St. Kitts and none of us are local to get a magazine or something. None of these teams have websites either and social media websites are not allowed for sources. KatoKungLee (talk) 20:28, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
