Why Kim Källström ranks #298 in Football

Kim Källström ranks 298th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 704th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 87, Longevity 86, Honours 82, Statistics 84. 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 1999–2018 with 20 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2008, which sets the Peak component at 87. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 87 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes sweden caps 131, ligue 1 titles 4, sweden goals 16, french cup titles 2.

Immediately ahead sits Salvatore Schillaci on 83.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Melanie Serrano on 83.1. 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.
