Request to expand Club career section

Latest comment: 16 hours ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hi, I am the subject of this article and, given my disclosed conflict of interest, I would appreciate an independent editor reviewing a proposed expansion of the Club career section rather than making the change myself.

The current Club career section is quite brief. There are published sources that provide additional information about my club career, including UEFA Academy, The Football Association, Globo/GE and Futsal Focus.

A possible neutral expansion would be:

After playing in the youth system of Sporting CP in Portugal, Medina subsequently moved into futsal. His club career included spells with CFS Premià de Mar in Spain, Ararat Futsal in Cyprus, Baku United in England, Oxford City of Texas in the United States, and London Helvécia in England.

Medina spent a significant part of his futsal career with London Helvécia, captaining the club during a period of domestic success. He also played for Baku United before later returning to Helvécia.

I would be grateful if an independent editor could review the available sources and determine which details are sufficiently supported and appropriate for inclusion. I am happy for the wording to be changed, shortened or omitted as necessary.

Potential sources:

UEFA Academy – UEFA Executive Master for International Players (MIP), participant/career profile: https://uefaacademy.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2022/10/UEFA-MIP_Who_4th_SPweb.pdf

Futsal Focus – Education opportunities futsal can provide – Raoni Medina: https://www.futsalfocus.net/education-opportunities-futsal-can-provide-raoni-medina/

PlaymakerStats – Raoni Medina player database: https://www.playmakerstats.com/players?search_txt=raoni+medina

There are also Football Association and Globo/GE sources already cited elsewhere in the article that contain information about Medina's playing career.

As I am the subject of the biography, I would prefer that an uninvolved editor assess the sources and make any appropriate changes.

Thank you. Raoni Medina (talk) 18:45, 9 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
