Every Team of the Year (TOTY) in history: FIFA 09 to EA FC 24

Nathan Warby
FIFA TOTY Tifo in Ultimate Team.

With EA FC 24 TOTY finally here, now feels like the perfect time to look back on the squads from the previous Ultimate Team seasons. We’ve put together every Team of the Year so far, from FIFA 09 up to EA FC 24.

Although the FIFA series was officially rebranded to EA Sports FC, the devs are keeping the fan-favorite Team of the Year event alive. Of the various promos and special events that both iterations of the series have conjured up over the years, none are held in the same esteem as TOTY.

These unique blue cards celebrate the very best players in world football over the previous 12 months, rewarding them with dizzying in-game stats that make them some of Ultimate Team‘s most expensive items.

With EA FC 24 TOTY upon us, there’s no better time to look back on the squads that have come before. Here’s every single Ultimate Team of the Year in history, all the way from FIFA 09 to EA FC 24.

Every FIFA Team of the Year (TOTY)

EA FC 24 TOTY background
EA FC 24 TOTY begins in January 2024.

The TOTY is always one of the most hotly anticipated events on the Ultimate Team calendar, with EA asking players to vote for the best performers of the previous 12 months. This could be based on individual awards, or the trophies won as a team.

Since the Team of the Year concept made its debut in FIFA 09, some of the sport’s biggest names have graced the squad, but there have also been some surprise inclusions over the years.

So, join us on a trip through football history as we hit you with every FUT TOTY since 2009.
