– No WP:COMMONNAME for footballers named Samu, so disambiguate to standard. Redirect Samu (footballer) to Samu. As per WP:MAIDEN, latter footballer's WP:COMMONNAME always omits both last names and is better known as "Samu" or "Samuel".

It is fairly standard for Spanish players to be known in that country by their given name, but this is English Wikipedia and I am not sure disambiguating like that is useful. GiantSnowman 07:08, 8 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
He doesn't go by either of his last names at all, so I think "Samu" or "Samuel" are the best options. I'll stand by "Samu" as per WP:HNDIS, as he uses that name in La Preferente.--Ortizesp (talk) 14:46, 8 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
