The first Team of the Week squad of the new year is set to appear in EA Sports FC 24, with top performers in the festive fixtures benefiting from a viewership boost. And if you’re wondering who could be selected in TOTW 16, we’ve rounded up the most notable players who could soon receive a new Ultimate Team card.
In the Premier League, one of the standout performances came from Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian striker scored two goals and had an assist as the Reds saw off Newcastle United 4-2 at Anfield. The result, which could have been even more impressive as Liverpool hit a record 7.27 expected goals (xG) in the match, saw Jurgen Klopp’s side start 2024 at the top of the Premier League table.
If Salah is selected for TOTW 16, the 31-year-old could have the highest-rated card in the upcoming release. The Reds star currently has an overall rating of 89 for EA FC 24, and if he is included in the upcoming Team of the Week, he would be in contention for an improved rating of +90. Salah could also be joined by a few other Premier League stars, with Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, Brighton’s João Pedro and Nottingham Forest’s Chris Wood among the other players who have put in impressive performances in England’s top flight in recent matches.
