The FIFA 22 TOTW 21 squad will be released this evening, but leakers are claiming Paris Saint-Germain star Lionel Messi will miss out.
The EA Sports FIFA 22 TOTW 21 is set to be revealed and released into packs at 18:00 PM GMT on Wednesday, February 9, 2022, and like most other TOTW and major FUT promo release so far in FIFA 22, various reliable social media accounts have apparently 'leaked' the TOTW squad prior to its full release.
The biggest 'leak' so far is that despite Messi grabbing a goal and assist for PSG in their 5-1 win, the Argentine is set to be snubbed from TOTW 21, with an unlikely goal source for the French side potentially set to be included instead.

The leaks on social media are suggesting that Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Napoli could all have players feature, whilst AC Milan are also rumoured to have two players included in the TOTW 21 squad after they came from a goal behind to beat fierce rivals Inter Milan 2-1.
Here's a round-up of the latest FIFA 22 TOTW 21 leaks, ahead of the official reveal at 18:00 PM GMT on Wednesday, February 9, 2022.
