FIFA 21: This is the Team of the Year - all players at a glance

EA Sports traditionally likes to tease out the anticipation for the team of the year. In FIFA 21, too, it took a while before all the players were known, along with their strengths. We summarize the selection.

The wait was worth it: in the 21 TOTY there is world class close to the maximum.

Even among the many different in-form cards, the TOTY variants take a special role. FIFA 21 confirms once again why this is so.

FIFA 21: This is how strong the Team of the Year is

Ratings of partly far beyond 90 are the standard in the Team of the Year. Nevertheless, the selection of FIFA 21 reads impressive:

• Goalkeeper: Manuel Neuer (96)
• Defense: Alphonso Davies (93), Sergio Ramos (96), Virgil van Dijk (96), Trent Alexander-Arnold (94)
• Midfield: Kevin de Bruyne (96), Joshua Kimmich (96), Bruno Fernandes (97)
• Storm: Cristiano Ronaldo (98), Robert Lewandowski (98), Kylian Mbappé (97)
• Twelfth man: Lionel Messi (98)

Specially with the twelfth player, the team of the year gets another highlight added. Since the TOTY cards are extremely rare, it should be lucky enough for most FIFA fans to even get one of these stars through packs. Otherwise, the transfer market helps out, albeit at corresponding prices.
