Improved to Good Article status by EchetusXe (talk). Self-nominated at 15:42, 2 November 2020 (UTC).

  • First, it's not that interesting since many vegan athletes will make similar claims. Second, it's better if the hook doesn't seem to be promoting something (in this case veganism). (t · c) buidhe 10:28, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
  • Seeing a comment was made on 3 November but not a full review, I will conduct a full review (though I agree with Template:U's comments about the hook)
  • checkY Article is long enough (7259 characters), is a GA, nominated in time (became GA on 1 November, nominated on 2 November), and article is within policy

  • checkY QPQ done

Okay I'll have to reach a bit for something interesting with this otherwise rather ordinary footballer. But reading again through the article this angle stood out for me:
