September 21 was a busy news day on the FIFA 23 side of things, but one other notable note on that date was the release of the new Companion App. The FIFA 23 Companion App went live just a few days before the start of early access, giving Football Ultimate Team (FUT) players a chance to start building out a squad. And, EA Sports also released the first Team of the Week (TOTW) of the cycle, now available in packs.
So, who made the cut for the first Team of the Week for FIFA 23? Let’s take a look.
