It seemed inevitable after his heroics at the weekend. Tonight EA has confirmed a special Giakoumakis team of the week card for his efforts against Dundee on Sunday.
The Greek striker put Dundee to the sword with the perfect hat-trick [left foot, right foot, header].
It was enough to ensure Celtic fans who are avid FIFA players will get to add Giakoumakis to their team of Celtic stars if they so wish.
Giakomakis lines up alongside the likes of Aubameyang and Harry Kane.

FIFA 22 is the only show in town right now for fans of console football. Celtic’s sponsors E-Sports put out one of the worst football games ever to be released last year and haven’t recovered since.
There is a new football game on the horizon that Celtic have also partnered with, hoping to break EASports’ stranglehold on the gaming genre.
UFL has partnered with Celtic but have not yet set a date for its release.
