EA FC 25 TOTY: Does Mohamed Salah deserve to be in Team of the Year?

The EA FC 25 TOTY voting process has started, and Mohamed Salah is included among the attacker nominees. The Egyptian forward has been in sublime form this season, but fans are wondering if he deserves a spot in the final roster based on this season alone. However, his individual performances last season were amazing as well and warrant his first Team of the Year item in Ultimate Team.

Despite failing to lead Liverpool to significant title victories last season, Salah has always been the key cog in their attacking lineup. The talismanic winger is regarded as one of the best players to grace the Premier League, and he has proven his worth during the current campaign by helping his side to the top of the table.

Mohamed Salah deserves to be included in the EA FC 25 TOTY squad

Liverpool have been almost flawless this season. They are on the top of the Premier League table and are favorites to win the UEFA Champions League. Mohamed Salah has been especially impressive, leading both the goalscoring and assist charts in the domestic league. His world-class showcases should definitely earn him a spot on the EA FC 25 TOTY roster.

The star forward has surprisingly never had a Team of the Year item in Ultimate Team. He has become a fan-favorite on the virtual pitch since his move to Liverpool in 2017, and his various special versions every year are extremely overpowered.

Salah already has multiple special items this year, including a Total Rush and POTM SBC version, and being included in EA FC 25 TOTY could make him even better.

With Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior being second in the Ballon d'Or rankings and winning the FIFA Best Player award for 2024, he is certainly going to take one of the spots in the squad. The other two attacker spots will be under contention by some massive names, with the likes of Mohamed Salah, Erling Haaland, Lamine Yamal, Kylian Mbappe and Lautaro Martinez all being nominated.

Among these selections, Salah stands out due to his recent form. Mbappe has had a shaky start to his Real Madrid career, and Haaland has also struggled to maintain a goal-scoring streak for Manchester City this season. While Martinez and Yamal have the trophies and records to strengthen their claim, the Liverpool attacker could trump them based on his popularity.

The final EA FC 25 TOTY squad will be selected based on fan votes, and Salah has been a global superstar for several years. He is also extremely overpowered in the current meta of the game, which will make him a popular choice.
