Team of the Year isn't far off in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team, as 2020 has now come to a close.

If you've yet to cast your vote for the nominees, be quick, as the voting for TOTY closes on Monday!

Headliners has concluded and no promo has followed it, meaning TOTY is the next big event coming to FUT.

Celebrating the best performers from the last year of football with some of the highest-rated, most boosted cards in the FUT cycle, TOTY is one that you don’t want to miss.

This is the time of the year where there's an incredible shift in the meta, all be it at a very lofty price. Meaning previously expensive and unobtainable cards will now become a bit cheaper.

Looking for the best packs to use for TOTY and how to get them fast?

The voting for TOTY closes in just one week!

Voting for TOTY is now live on EA Sports website!

TOTY is expected to begin on the 22nd of January 2021.

TOTY voting has now begun and will continue until the Monday January 18th.

We're assuming the full team will be released that day and run for one week.

The FIFA 21 FUT TOTY Nominees can be voted for until the 18th January 2020.

While we haven’t had any official card designs through for TOTY or TOTY Nominees yet, Twitter user @FcWolke99 has come up with a tasty looking concept card for a FUT 21 themed TOTY item that takes inspiration from the grand TOTY 20 design.

By far the biggest aspect of the promotion is indeed the squad of 11 players that is released into packs, as well as the 12th man community voted TOTY player.

The squad of players is voted for by the community and a handful of other groups, such as EA developers and some EA partnered clubs and is released to packs in stages over the course of the TOTY promotion, all being released into packs for a number of days towards the end of the event.

Have your say!

Once the voting ends on December 23rd at 12am, we’ll release your predictions for who you think makes the FIFA 21 Team of the Year!

While it's too early to tell what will happen, you may see a severe drop in the pricing of players within the FUT market.

This is due to players offloading their players in an attempt to round up coins for these cards.

It's also going to be partly due to the way EA tends to distribute these cards into packs.

Usually, EA will promote this event for at least a week, distributing each section of the team (goalkeepers/defence, midfield and attack) separately over a few days each.

Perhaps one of the most requested areas of the promotion is good to upgrade packs for people to throw millions of coins at. Last year we had League specific 25k Player Packs, as well as repeatable 83+ packs. These will allow players to have a shot at the TOTY cards, and are great fun to sit and grind!
