Players worthy of the A team visit our ground (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

virtuosi

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'players' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Top players' mean 'virtuosi' so perhaps 'players' could also mean 'virtuosi')

'visit our ground' is the wordplay.
'ground' indicates anagramming the letters ('grind' the letters into a new form).
'visit'+'our'='visitour'
'visitour' with letters rearranged gives 'VIRTUOSI'.

'worthy of the a team' acts as a link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for virtuosi that I've seen before include "Skilled musicians" , "Top players" .)
