The case for a more diverse TOTY

While the TOTY nominees are all deserving players, there are some who believe that the team could be more diverse. In particular, there are calls for more representation from players outside of Europe. For example, there are no African players nominated for the TOTY, despite the continent producing some of the best players in the world.

There are several reasons why the TOTY nominees are so heavily weighted towards European players. One reason is that European clubs tend to have more financial resources than clubs from other continents, which allows them to sign the best players. Another reason is that European football is more popular than football from other continents, which means that it gets more exposure and attention.

However, there is a growing movement to make football more diverse and inclusive. FIFA has recently introduced new rules to promote the development of football in Africa, and there are several initiatives underway to increase the representation of players from other continents in the TOTY.

It is important to remember that the TOTY is a global award, and it should reflect the diversity of talent in world football. Hopefully, in the future, we will see a more diverse TOTY that truly represents the best players from all over the world.

Conclusion

The FIFA 23 Team of the Year nominees are a star-studded list of the best players in the world. The final team will be announced on January 19th, and it will be interesting to see which players make the cut.
