Mistakenly contested PROD. This player fails all known notability guidelines, particularly WP:NFOOTY, which states that footballers only become automatically notable if they have played in a competitive, first-team match for a professional club. Januzaj was selected as a substitute against West Brom on Sunday, but that is not enough. – PeeJay 23:56, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

- Delete - He has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 03:03, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- Delete I note that in WP:NFOOTY it says "Youth players are not notable unless they satisfy one of the statements above" which means that his selection for Belgium u-19s is inadequate for keeping and whilst I think he will probably become notable in the future, at the moment he simply does not meet the GNG.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 11:16, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- Keep/Comment - WP:NFOOTY does not clearly define what qualifies an "appearance". I believe him being on the bench against WBA can be considered as a "Player who has appeared in a fully professional league." Note the absence of the word "match" or "game" - were it to read "Players who have...appeared in a match/game in a fully professinal league...", it would suggest unused subs not being counted.
