FIFA 21 TOTY: How to vote for Team of the Year nominees

EA SPORTS have confirmed the FIFA 21 TOTY (Team of the Year) promo is coming soon to Ultimate Team, and the community will decide who will feature once again with their votes. 

The game’s promotional calendar in FUT is ever-changing, but some events have proven to be a constant in the mode. Team of the Year, much like Team of the Week, will always come around at the same time as usual – and that’s January.

With 2020 behind us, many will be looking forward to seeing who will be named TOTY nominees.

EA officially confirmed the arrival of their next FIFA 21 event on January 6, with voting opening a day later – on January 7. 

It’s almost time.
