Why Sebastian Larsson ranks #375 in Football
Sebastian Larsson ranks 375th among Football athletes on GOAT Rank and 1057th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 81.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 84, Longevity 88, Honours 76, 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 2005–2023 with 19 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2015, which sets the Peak component at 84. Longevity is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes sweden caps 133, premier league appearances 300, swedish titles 2, sweden goals 10.
Immediately ahead sits Claudio Bravo on 81.2, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is George Weah on 81.1. 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.
