Liverpool FIFA 20 update revealed featuring major squad upgrades

As Liverpool head into the second-half of the 2019/20 campaign, the Reds have already lifted a trophy in the Club World Cup, sit at the top of the Premier League table and remain in contention for the FA Cup and the Champions League.

All of this is thanks to Liverpool's superb form, losing only one of their last 26 games in all competitions, with their only defeat coming in the League Cup, when Jurgen Klopp fielded a vastly under-strength team due to their Club World Cup exploits.

FIFA 20 have taken this into account and given the Reds squad a major overhaul on the game, with a number of players being upgraded to reflect their real-life form.

Here are the latest changes to the Liverpool squad on FIFA 20, as of January 10th 2020.
