FIFA 19 Winter Upgrades: 3 Premier League players who might get a downgrade

#1 – Naby Keita

Bury v Liverpool - Pre-Season Friendly

When Liverpool signed Naby Keita last summer and loaned him back to RB Leipzig, many thought that he was the final piece needed to complete their midfield. A year and a half later, he is unable to get into the starting XI.

Georginio Wijnaldum, James Milner and Fabinho have managed to keep him out while Jordan Henderson has also been pipping him to a starting spot for the Reds this season. Moreover, the change in role of Roberto Firmino, which sees him play as a CAM, has kept Keita out of the team.

Rated at 83, EA are likely to push him down to 82 in the winter refresh. While it is not a huge downgrade, it is a surprise for many as he was tipped to be the stand out performer for Liverpool this season. And with the return of Chamberlain soon, it is only going to make things worse for Keita.
