This is how Liverpool's sensational £680m-rated side could look in five years time - according to Football Manager 2020

The latest edition of Football Manager - destroyer of weekend plans, ambitions to learn a new language/musical instrument, and in some rather more severe cases, marriages - has finally been released, and we've already had a tonne of fun getting to grips with the new version.

We've simulated five years into the future, and had a look at how Liverpool shape up ahead of the 2024/25 season. Click and scroll through the gallery to see how FM20 thinks the Reds' starting XI, substitutes, and manager will look in the future.

9. Sub: Alvaro Odriozola

Spending 52m on your backup right-back really is quite the luxury. He's not getting Alexander-Arnold's place any time soon, but does a fine job in the Carabao Cup at least... | Getty

10. Sub: Saul

Another rather audacious rotation option at 81m, the Reds are in very safe hands when the Spanish sensation slots into their starting XI from time to time. | Getty

11. Sub: Roberto Firmino

On the brink of his tenth season with Liverpool, the Brazilian has developed into a specialist impact sub - Edin Dzeko 2.0, some have said. | Getty

12. Manager: Ernesto Valverde

After winning the Champions League again in 2022, Klopp left for Barcelona. Ernesto Valverde moved in the opposition direction, won the Champions League in 2023, and then led an invincible league title win in 2024! Superb. | Getty
