With Erling Haaland leaked to be the winner of the TOTY 12th Man vote, fans were eager to see which footballers received a spot on the Honorable Mentions roster. These players were nominated for the overall Team of the Year vote due to their impressive performances over the year, but narrowly missed out on a spot in the starting eleven.

While these cards won't be as ridiculously boosted as the TOTY versions, they will undoubtedly be overpowered and viable in their respective positions in the current meta of FIFA 23.

Vinicius Junior is probably the most popular player to be leaked for the upcoming promo. Not only is the Brazilian winger a force to be reckoned with on the virtual pitch, he has been one of the driving forces behind Real Madrid's domestic and European success. Based on leaks by FIFATradingRomania on Twitter, Vinicius Junior will receive a TOTY Honorable Mentions card soon.

Similarly, Joao Cancelo has been a mainstay in defense for Manchester City and the Portuguese national side. He is amongst the most versatile fullbacks in the world, capable of playing on either flank and assisting in offensive plays. Cancelo's abilities have been reflected accurately in FIFA 23, and based on leaks by FUT Sheriff, he will receive a TOTY Honorable Mentions card as well.

Harry Kane has established himself as one of the leading marksmen in European football. His goalscoring exploits for Spurs and the English national team have earned him the admiration of a global audience, as well as a TOTY Honorable Mentions card in FIFA 23.

Over in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich fullback Alphonso Davies has made a glorious comeback after being injured for most of last season. The Canadian full-back is widely regarded as an elite-tier defender in real life as well as in-game, and his return to form has earned him his second special card of the season alongside his World Cup Stories version.

With the likes of Joao Cancelo, Vinicius Junior, Harry Kane, and Alphonso Davies being included in the upcoming promo, TOTY Honorable Mentions will definitely fetch a high price in the FIFA 23 transfer market. These new overpowered cards will be fantastic additions to any FUT squad, and gamers will be eager to get their hands on these special variants.
