Rank 06 · 2026 race
Michael Olise
Bayern München · France · Midfielder
Real-data provisional ranking
Every displayed component is computed from current API-Football fixture, event, player-stat, standings, and pre-match Elo evidence. The ranking remains provisional—not illustrative—until the locked 2024–2025 historical holdout gate is complete.
#6 in the index
No change since the previous snapshot
Explanation
Michael Olise ranks #6 on 77.8. Role output is the strongest relative component; All-round role contribution is the clearest constraint. This temporary deterministic explanation will be replaced by the build-time AI Gateway pass.
Why the rank moved
This is the first real-data snapshot, so no ranking movement is claimed.

Role output
Role output is the 98th role-cohort percentile from 4 disclosed metric families (100% weight coverage).

• Opportunity is calculated within each represented team-season-competition.
• Consistency uses unshrunk match impact and a smooth 0.40–0.60 credit curve instead of a noisy hard threshold.

Match-swinging contribution
Match-state events produce 18.28 leverage units from 56 goal/assist/penalty events; untimed role actions in high-uncertainty fixtures add a 96th-percentile proxy.

Team performance & achievements
Team credit: Bundesliga winner (0.68 credit); FIFA World Cup semi final (0.59 credit); UEFA Champions League semi final (0.53 credit). Diminishing-return evidence is 1.24 against the disclosed 2.00 ceiling.
How this was calculated
finish × prestige × route × participation × importance; credits then receive 1.0/0.6/0.3/0.1 diminishing weights

• Evidence is normalized to a 2.00 ceiling.
• Team success is not awarded equally to every squad member.
• Starting semi-finals and finals increases importance; bench status therefore reduces trophy credit.
