EA Sports has announced that the Argentine forward of FC Barcelona has been chosen as player number twelve by the FUT FIFA 21 community.
Following the recent introduction of FIFA 21 TOTY by EA Sports, it was now the player community’s turn to choose the 12th best footballer of the year. So much so, that EA has already announced the winner, who is none other than Lionel Messi, the Argentine forward of FC Barcelona, who becomes part of TOTY thanks to the support of the community of the popular Electronic Arts soccer video game.
Messi enters the TOTY with an average of 98
Thus, Messi enters the FIFA 21 TOTY with an average of 98, the highest of the year and equaling those of Cristiano Ronaldo and Robert Lewandowski; curious result, since last year it was exactly the other way around, with Messi as TOTY starter and CR7 entering as player number 12.
Ready to take on anyone.
