The FIFA 23 TOTW 19 (Team of the Week 19) will be released later today, and leaks suggest Liverpool's Mohamed Salah is set to headline the squad.
The result that shocked the footballing world, Liverpool battered Manchester United 7-0 in the Premier League last Sunday, with Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Salah all scoring twice. But, some leaks ahead of FIFA 23's TOTW 19 release claim that Salah is the player set to feature in the squad, with the Egyptian also notching two assists.
As well as Salah, players from Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Atletico Madrid and more could be included. The FIFA 23 TOTW 19 squad is set to be revealed and released into FUT Packs today at 6pm GMT / 1pm ET / 10am PT.
FIFA 23 TOTW 19 leaks
The TOTW 19 leaks come courtesy of @UTSources, with the reliable leaker reporting that Liverpool's Salah is set to feature after his impressive performance against Man United. This would be the Egyptian's third TOTW item in FIFA 23, and unless EA makes a drastic change to how their TOTW upgrades work before the TOTW 19 release, the winger is set to be awarded a 93-rated player item.
So far, Salah is the only player leaked to feature in TOTW 19, but we will update this if more are announced before the official release.

FIFA 23 TOTW 19 predictions
The FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) 23 TOTW 19 line-up will be picked on single performances only, so goals and assists are not added cumulatively within the TOTW period. Also, note that performances in domestic cup competitions do not count towards TOTW selection criteria.
Only one player from any one team can be included in a TOTW line-up barring exceptional circumstances. Players included in either of the last two TOTW line-ups are ineligible, as are players who have featured in the most recent FUT 23 promo.
Here are our predictions for the FIFA 23 TOTW 19 squad:
- GK: Ederson (Manchester City) - Clean sheet and 100th Premier League clean sheet in 2-0 win
