Why Bruno Fernandes ranks #163 in Football
Bruno Fernandes ranks 163rd among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 668th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 86, Longevity 78, Honours 76, Statistics 86. Those categories are normalised against the full Football reference universe of 909 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 2012–present with 14 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2018, which sets the Peak component at 86. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 86 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes premier league goal contributions 160, portugal caps 85, portugal goals 26, nations league titles 1.
Immediately ahead sits Bruce Grobbelaar on 80.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Didier Drogba on 80.8. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
