EA begins to release FIFA 22 Team of the Year nominees with best Attackers

EA Sports is getting ready for the biggest FUT promo of the year, as Team of the Year (TOTY) nominees for FIFA 22 are beginning to be released. After a 2021 Team of the Year promo that saw 10 million users vote on a star-studded list of TOTY nominees, 2022 seems to be a jam-packed one yet again. EA Sports and the FIFA 22 team began the introduction of the nominees with the best attackers, with many familiar faces making the cut.

Thirteen of the world’s best attackers made the first initial cut. These nominees include Bayern star Robert Lewandowski, who scored 58 goals for his team in the Bundesliga last season. That total blew past all the other names on this list, including young sensations Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland. Both Mbappe and Haaland score 43 in 2021.

Other notable names include Mo Salah, new PSG winger Lionel Messi, future Toronto FC attacker Lorenzo Insigne, Romelu Lukaku, Jonathan David, and Luis Suarez. The latter three played pivotal roles for their squads that won league titles last year.
