Fails WP:FOOTY, and was nominated WP:TOOSOON. No senior caps in professional football. If he doesn't get capped, the page won't have long-term significance. Ortizesp ( talk) 17:18, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

- Keep - meets GNG through sources such as this and this, and was subject of a disputed transfer between two big clubs, so has received additional coverage from that that separates/elevates him from other 'young prospects' who have had articles deleted. I also note nominator has not notified the article creator about this AFD, poor form. Giant Snowman 17:45, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

- Keep - I agree with the above, several sources such as this one from Goal (one of the biggest sport websites worldwide) prove the article meets the GNG. The author also launched several proposed deletion without notifying any author... -- Coco ( talk) 18:31, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

- Keep passes WP:GNG. Pharaoh of the Wizards ( talk) 15:57, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- Draftify I think this is a little bit WP:TOOSOON. Unlike the other prospect, I'm not entirely convinced Barry will be notable if he doesn't end up making the grade. The sources presented are either all related to transfers or are local to Birmingham. That being said, it's not far off. SportingFlyer T· C 18:32, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
- Birmingham is the second largest city in the UK - but sure, it's just local coverage... *shakes head*

- Local coverage has nothing to do with city size. The article was written by someone who covers Aston Villa with regularity. If there's other non-routine, non-transfer coverage of him I'd probably change to keep. SportingFlyer T· C 18:38, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

This source is clearly about the player as a whole, not only the transfer, IMHO. --
