Ted Lasso and AFC Richmond have made their way to FIFA 23, bringing some Ultimate Team rewards with them.

As well as Ted Lasso himself, AFC Richmond players like Roy Kent and Jamie Tartt are available in the game, as well as Coach Beard and a few cosmetic items.

To help you find them, we've detailed all the Ted Lasso rewards in FIFA 23 below, including who and what is available in Ultimate Team, Career, and other modes, along with all the AFC Richmond player ratings.

Who is Ted Lasso?

If you haven't got Apple TV + and don't know your Jason Sudeikis' from your Jason Bateman's, you might be wondering why this American bloke with an impeccable moustache is in this year's FIFA entry.

Ted Lasso is the name of a comedy TV show currently streaming on Apple TV + that follows Ted Lasso himself (played by former SNL regular Jason Sudeikis), an American football coach who makes his way to England to manage the fictional Premier League team AFC Richmond.

Despite not knowing a thing about football tactics of the non-American variety, Ted instead tries to turn AFC Richmond's middling performance around by trying to inspire the players.

While a corny concept on paper, the first season of the show was nominated for 20 Primetime Emmy Awards, becoming the most nominated first season comedy in Emmy Award history. It's also the most watched TV series on Apple TV +, and the most watched premiere on the platform.

Although more focused on the comedy than the sports aspect of football, Ted Lasso has also had Thierry Henry, Gary Lineker, Jeff Stelling, Chris Kamara, Arlo White, and Chris Powell guest star as themselves, offering a little something for football fans as well.

Ted Lasso in FIFA 23 Ultimate Team

While Ted Lasso and Coach Beard are available to get in Ultimate Team to manage your squad, there are no AFC Richmond players available in FUT. It might be a little disappointing to some, but you can still earn cosmetic rewards related to Richmond by taking part in other parts of the Ultimate Team mode.

Here are all the Ted Lasso Ultimate Team rewards you can currently get in FIFA 23:

While not available yet, the official EA blog post noted that 'authentic kits and TIFOs' would be amongst the Ted Lasso rewards in FUT, so the Richmond kit should be released sometime this event season.

How to get Ted Lasso and Coach Beard

Ted Lasso and Coach Beard cost four Stars each, and to earn the Stars, you're going to have to complete some of FIFA 23's new 'Moments' in Ultimate Team. Check out each of the cards available in each Moment to complete some easy ones that only requiring you to pass the ball, or similar easy tasks.

Or, if you want to progress with other time-limited challenges while earning Stars, you can check out our guides on how to Stepover right and how to Power Shot, which you need to do for certain challenges in Mbappé's Moments.

Once you have enough Stars, go to the Seasonal tab of the 'Star Gallery' in FUT Moments. Here you can cash in four Stars to add Ted Lasso or Coach Beard to your collection, or eight Stars to get both of them.

'Ted Lasso’s Story' challenges and rewards

To get the AFC Richmond cosmetic rewards listed above, you need to complete the 'Ted Lasso's Story' objective in FUT Moments, located in the 'Objectives' menu from the 'Home' tab. You'll also be able to earn some normal rewards for completing the challenges too.

Here's every reward for the 'Ted Lasso's Story' objective and how to get them:

It's worth noting that Moments don't seem to count for the 'Score a goal in any match type' challenge, as it didn't tick this one off for us when we tried doing it. Squad Battles, however, did count for us.
