• Delete - Article appears to fail WP:GNG as online sources consist of trivial/routine coverage (this is the most "in-depth" coverage I could find). Jogurney (talk) 14:21, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. GiantSnowman 18:53, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The article [1] calls him the "standard bearer of the best team in Cameroon for the past fifteen years", and mentions his "great season in Côte d'Ivoire", which indicates notability. Also, the search [2] gives dozens of results, including two whole pages dedicated to him and his suspension for corruption. EternalNomad (talk) 05:07, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Interviews lacking substantial independent commentary do not count towards GNG, and being described favorably is not a notability criterion either. Routine game recaps, in an outlet that seems to give play-by-plays of every Cameroonian match, are also not eligible for GNG. I looked through all 7 pages of hits for Kako on camfoot and not a single one offered significant coverage, including those reporting on the handful of players nabbed for rigging a match.
