Team of the Week’s comeback doesn’t feature a 90+ player after World Cup

DESPITE its long hiatus for the World Cup, FIFA 23’s Team of the Week has returned without any 90+ rated players.

Arsenal’s captain Martin Ødegaard is the highlight of the week, with the highest-rated card at 88.

This week’s full roster.

FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) Team of the Week usually has at least one 90+ rated card, which fans were expecting following the long break.

If you download the FIFA 23 companion web or mobile app, you can open FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) packs on the go.

This means you can start building your team ready to play in the game.

The Team of the Week cards will show up as special cards in FUT packs this week, with boosted stats.

However, there are two rare double-boosted cards this week, perhaps to make up for the other lower ratings.

Douglas Luiz has had a massive nine-point boost from 78 to 87.

Mehdi Taremi is the other double-boosted card with a six-point boost from 81 to 87.

This week’s team will be available via FUT packs until Wednesday, January 12, 5pm UK time.

After that, these boosted cards will only be purchasable via the transfer market, usually for high prices.

Here is a list of all the players in FIFA 23’s Team of the Week and their boosted stats:

  • 88 – Ødegaard
  • 87 – Douglas Luiz, Taremi, Griezmann
  • 86 – Ledesma, Pau Torres, 
  • 85 – Ricardo Horta, Openda
  • 84 – Shaw, Caqueret, Nuno Santos, Lafont
