This saw first-team players and other famous faces compete on behalf of all 20 Premier League clubs in an online EA SPORTS FIFA 20 tournament. Two instalments of the competition were broadcast across five continents as LCFC’s James Maddison and then-Wolverhampton Wanderers player Diogo Jota crowned champions.
