Why Marek Hamšík ranks #168 in Football
Marek Hamšík ranks 168th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 695th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 82, Longevity 86, Honours 76, Statistics 82. 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 2004–2023 with 19 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2014, which sets the Peak component at 82. Longevity 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 napoli goals 121, napoli appearances 520, slovakia caps 138, coppa italia titles 3.
Immediately ahead sits Jan Vertonghen on 80.7, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Mallory Swanson on 80.6. 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.
