Major Liverpool FIFA 20 update revealed as seven players get huge upgrades

Liverpool's outstanding Premier League record continued against Wolves last week, with goals from Jordan Henderson and Roberto Firmino securing an important three points against a very dangerous side.

The Reds are now unbeaten in their last 40 league games, an incredible record, with Jurgen Klopp's side now a massive 16 points ahead of title rivals Manchester City, and they have a game in hand too.

This form has led to the makers of FIFA 20, EA SPORTS, having reassess the Reds players on the game, with some players' in-game stats a bit lower than they should be, based off their real-life form.

In the latest player database update, they've done their best to fix this, with a number of Liverpool's key players given major upgrades, including Alisson, Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino.

Here are the latest changes to the Liverpool squad on FIFA 20, as of January 24th 2020.
