Six Arsenal stars named in FIFA TOTS as Chelsea and Tottenham trio get special recognition

Six members of Arsenal's squad fighting for their Premier League title this season have been recognised for their performances by being given a spot in the FIFA 23 Team of the Season (TOTS). The Gunners have been the surprise package in this campaign, pushing reigning champions Manchester City to the absolute limit with the title battle set to continue until the final embers of the season.

Unsurprisingly, given the fact they have scored 81 goals this season, three of Arsenal's regular attacking quartet have been named in the TOTS. Likely due to missing three months of the season, Gabriel Jesus has been left out but Bukayo Saka (93-rated), Gabriel Martinelli (93-rated) and Martin Odegaard (92-rated) have all been included.

At the back, William Saliba (92-rated), Oleksandr Zinchenko (92-rated) and Aaron Ramsdale (90-rated) have all made the cut with the duo of Gabriel Magalhaes and Ben White missing out. Representatives of the Gunners make up nearly half of the field with 14 stars included, as three have been awarded with special recognition.
