WP:COMMONNAME of both footballers omits maternal last name always, former is the only association known as "Antonio Sánchez" the latter exclusively as "Toni". Disambiguate the former to standard for footballers. Ortizesp (talk) 13:53, 14 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose. This makes no sense. "Antonio Sánchez (footballer)" is clearly incomplete disambiguation. 98.143.75.50 (talk) 18:22, 14 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
    • How? He's the only association footballer who plays with the name.--Ortizesp (talk) 18:46, 14 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
      • "Antonio Sánchez (footballer)" equally applies to Antonio Sánchez Cabeza. There is no special significance to "plays with the name". If there were, nobody would have named the articles the way they are in the first place. See WP:INCDAB. 98.143.75.50 (talk) 12:50, 15 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
        • The latter footballer is known exlusively as "Toni" or "Toni Sánchez". Never as specifically "Antonio Sánchez", and only by his full name in a legal sense.--Ortizesp (talk) 15:46, 15 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per nom, the disambiguation is complete since one player goes by Antonio and one by Toni...also, there is clear consensus that we don't use maternal last names to disambiguate footballers, since that violates COMMONNAME. Keskkonnakaitse (talk) 15:25, 15 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
