While EA releases these cards with their own discretion, this time around, they have let people vote for them. Four of the dominant TOTS (Community, Bundesliga, Premier League, and La Liga) have already been released in the game, making Ligue 1 TOTS the fifth.

Who all made it to The Ligue 1 TOTS?

The players selected for the promo are the ones who did exceptionally well on the pitch. While one can argue about a couple of selections, most of them are well deserving of their spot. Paris Saint-Germain have dominated in their domestic season and the Ligue 1 TOTS. Out of the 15 cards released in packs, one-third of them belong to the French capital team.

In Forwards, PSG star front trio, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Neymar Jr. made it to the list. Monaco’s number 10, Wissam Ben Yedder, has rightfully earned his spot with Marseille’s Dimitri Payet and Rennes’ Martin Terrier.
