FIFA 17: The latest team of the season has one true hidden gem

The starting line up features Taison - a midfielder with a devastating combination of attacking stats

EA Sports has released the latest team of the season – this time featuring players from the ‘Rest of the World’.

While many of the players in the starting line up boast ratings in the high 80s, there’s one star in particular that catches the eye.

Taison.

FIFA 17 TOTS

The starting line up for the ‘Rest of the World’ TOTS is much stronger than the bench

The 89-rated Shakhtar Donetsk midlfielder has a lethal combination of stats – with 98 pace, 95 dribbling, 90 shooting and 89 passing.

No wonder Chelsea wanted to sign him a couple of years ago.

While this top card costs more than 100,000 coins, his standard 82-rated Gold card is an absolute bargain – costing around 1,800 coins.

Taison’s winter upgrade card (82) is still decent and will set you back fewer than 2,000 coins
