Was nominated for deletion months ago, but I’m fairly sure it is entirely a hoax.
He claims to have played with Alianza Atletico Sullana from 2018-19 but isn’t listed here: https://www.transfermarkt.us/alianza-atletico-sullana/kader/verein/17479/saison_id/2018/plus/1 on their list.
Every single reference was a dead link (I have my doubts as to whether they were ever working links) and someone else removed them, meaning the article now has no references.
The few external links that work (such as https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/matches/_/id/157366/bruno-de-camargo-agnello) show him as having competed in zero matches. He does appear to be in the current listed team (G3X) but they compete in a small and completely new tournament that doesn’t have any media coverage.
The photo on the page uploaded by a ‘Bagnello’, who wrote in 2013 in an edit summary that “My name is Bruno Agnello, im the person that is discribed (sic) by this site”.
While he is a real person and probably involved in sports, he doesn’t come close to meeting notability standards and the article has been unreferenced since March, when it was last proposed for deletion, probably because there are no references to be found… Aesurias (talk) 02:41, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: If the nominator doesen’t evaluate the sources provided in the last AFD, this nomination should be thrown out. I am neutral on the notability, but I find the claim of hoaxing poorly corroborated. [1] Transfermarkt is irrelevant. Geschichte (talk) 05:23, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  I didn’t add the hoax tag, it was already placed there. I, personally, mean hoax in the sense that almost his entire career appears to be fabricated Aesurias (talk) 05:40, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep per WP:BASIC, The article is dire, really poor, however there seems to be some sources there. I would like to see the article is better shape with better sources. Doesn’t look like fabricated information. I can’t be totally sure and as we know transfermk is an unreliable website. Govvy (talk) 12:52, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
