EA Sports released the new Team of the Week in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team. TOTW 8 is based on last weekend's Nations League games and features some exciting cards. Two TOTW players can also look forward to an upgrade.

After TOTW 7 was a significant upgrade over teams of the past, FIFA 21 TOTW 8 keeps up the pace with another solid roster of players, including Sadio Mané and N'Golo Kanté. Inter's new signings Arturo Vidal and Achraf Hakimi can look forward to an upgrade to their dynamic TOTW cards in addition to the In-Forms they receive from TOTW 8.

Once again, it is the English Premier League that can look forward to the most exciting upgrades in TOTW 8. N'Golo Kanté, who is already the best defensive midfielder in FIFA 21, gets even better with this In-Form card, courtesy of his game-winner against Portugal. Fellow EPL stars Sadio Mané and Riyad Mahrez also make their way into TOTW 8 with great international performances. Chelsea's German striker Timo Werner, who scored a brace vs. Ukraine, is an unexpected omission that could have made TOTW 8 even better.
