– No WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, and WP:COMMONNAME for both is just "Ángel Sánchez", so disambiguate to standard for footballers. Ortizesp (talk) 04:26, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. But, since the birth dates are so close, an alternative (probably not as good) suggestion (based on no knowledge of Spain or football, let alone the players) might be to disambiguate by where they were born without mentioning "Salamanca" (due to both having that connection), say, "(Leonese footballer)" and "(Mallorcan footballer)" if that is idiomatic at all to English speakers in Spain.

- No, we don't do that. The date of birth is fine, even if it were only a year apart, let alone the 15 years here. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:15, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - In hindsight, there are many reasons why that is a very bad suggestion of mine. Llew Mawr (talk) 15:21, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
