Whilst he has played in 5 games in the Belgian 2nd tier, the current version of WP:FPL only includes this league from 2016 onwards, so Gkionis doesn't actually pass WP:NFOOTBALL. This Greek News Online source is good but not enough to pass WP:GNG on its own, as that requires multiple reliable sources addressing him in detail. I have searched "Nicholas Gkionis", "Nick Gkionis" and "Niko Gkionis" and the best that I can find are this blog written by him and this blog post where he is inteviewed.

I'm not convinced that the coverage is enough and I also have my doubts about the quality of the sources. Whilst not necessarily a reason to delete the article, I am also concerned about the highly promotional language used throughout the article, indicating that it was either written by Gkionis or someone closely associated with him. Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:29, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
