FIFA 19 Winter Upgrades: 3 LaLiga Players Who Will Get A Downgrade

#2 – Gareth Bale

With the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid, it was time for Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema to step up and deliver. However, the duo has failed miserably at Bernabeu this season and it has cost Los Blancos big time.

Rated at 88 in FIFA 19, Bale is one of the most over-rated players in the game. The Welshman is also one of the most sought-after players in the Ultimate Team, going for a minimum of 240k coins on PS4.

The former Tottenham star has done very little to justify his rating in the game and should be receiving a massive downgrade in February. However, given that he plays for Real Madrid, EA might only push him down to 86 but nothing lower than that, despite what others have done.

In FIFA 20, there is no way EA can give him anything more than 84.
