\u201cI am terrible at all other games,\u201d Tom Leese told us at a swanky event in London. \u201cI used to play Call of Duty<\/a> back in the Modern Warfare 2 and World of War days, but I was no good. I tried Fortnite<\/a> when it was booming and I was terrible at that. I also tried NBA 2K, terrible at that. For some reason, FIFA\u2019s the only game I\u2019m good at!\u201d<\/p>\n Saying that Tom Leese is good at FIFA<\/a> is like saying Lionel Messi is good at football. While he might not be bagging many Warzone wins, Victory Royales or slam dunks, the young football gaming star is on top of the world when it comes to FIFA esports \u2013 and he\u2019s helping change the game.<\/p>\n The 22-year-old has recently made esports history, moving from YouTube sensations Hashtag United<\/a> to a new home at EXCEL<\/a> in a \u2018first of its kind\u2019 transfer. There have been many transfers between FIFA esports teams to this point, but this one stands apart due to the reported fee involved. It is rumoured that securing Leese\u2019s signature cost the ambitious EXCEL team a six-figure fee.<\/p>\n Tom\u2019s transfer fee, therefore, is larger than many seen in professional football itself and has attracted attention from all corners. The move was even reported by premier football news outlet, Sky Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n
