Why Giovane Élber ranks #139 in Football
Giovane Élber ranks 139th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 276th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 86.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 84, Honours 86, Statistics 90. Those categories are normalised against the full Football reference universe of 895 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1990–2006 with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1999, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes bundesliga titles 4, champions league titles 1, bundesliga top scorer awards 1, bundesliga goals 133.
Immediately ahead sits Roger Milla on 86.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Homare Sawa on 85.9. 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.
