Keep nine caps for the national team and enough sources around, passes WP:GNG in my opinion. Govvy (talk) 12:51, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - plenty of sources out there, see e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4 - all from the first page of a Google News search of 'Abdul Manaf Mamat'. Did nominator even comply with BEFORE? Giant Snowman 15:02, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

1 and 3 are obviously not significant coverage, and neither are 2 and 4 imo: just a couple of sentences devoted to a transfer. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 22:06, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Article about former star Malaysian footballer (cup winner with several international caps) which appears to satisfy WP:GNG. I've added a couple Malay-language articles from local newspapers Berita Harian and Harian Metro plus a Malay football blogpost which I think are SIGCOV. It would be nice to have access to The New Straits Times archives since Manaf accomplished most of his success from 2007–11, but I think there's enough in the recent stuff that is online.
