Exciting youngster Kaide Gordon has been added into the Liverpool squad on FIFA 22 after making his Premier League debut against Brentford last weekend.
Since his arrival at Liverpool from Derby County in July 2021, Gordon has had a fair share of first-team experiences under Jurgen Klopp, with the winger having made his debut for the Reds in all three domestic competitions already, scoring his first goal for the club in the 4-1 FA Cup win over Shrewsbury Town.
The 17-year-old is highly rated by the Anfield faithful and Klopp, and with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane away at AFCON, the winger could potentially play more minutes over the next few weeks.
Away from the first team, Gordon has predominately featured in the Liverpool U23 side in the Premier League 2 and the U19s in the UEFA Youth League, making a combined 15 appearances at all age groups whilst grabbing three goals and two assists.

But with a couple of first-team appearances now under his belt, Gordon has officially been added into the FIFA 22 Liverpool team during the latest squad update.
The latest FIFA 22 squad update was released on January 13, 2022, and is now available to download on all platforms including PC, Xbox and PlayStation.
So, what does Kaide Gordon's FIFA 22 stats look like? Let's take a look.
Kaide Gordon in FIFA 22
Overall rating: 58/99
Overall Potential : 81/99
Positions: RW, LW
Weak Foot: Two-Star
Skill Moves: Two-Star
Work Rate: High/Medium
Due to his age and vast inexperience, Gordon is rated just 58 overall out of 99, making him the fourth lowest-rated player in the squad behind fellow youth players Elijah Dixon-Bonner, Marcelo Pitaluga and Tom Clayton, with the trio all rated 57 out of 99.
Despite currently being just 58 overall, the 17-year-old has a high potential rating of 81 out of 99, which would make the Englishman more highly rated than current first-team players Naby Keita (80), James Milner (79), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (78), Divock Origi (76), Takumi Minamino (75) and Curtis Jones (75), should he reach his potential.
Gordon's potential is also higher than the potential of Kostas Tskimikas (80), Nat Phillips (79), Divock Origi (79), Tyler Morton (79) and Conor Bradley (77).
When compared to the potential of Harvey Elliot (87), Jones (86) and Ibrahim Konate (87), Gordon's potential seems quite low, but it's still too early to get a very accurate guess of how good the 17-year-old could become.
Being just 58 rated, the forward has very low stats right now, with his agility (78), balance (76), acceleration (74), sprint speed (68) and ball control (60) his highest-rated individual attributes.
Standing at 5ft 7in, Gordon has two-star weak foot and two-star skill moves, though these are both set to improve over the next few years, as is his rating, should the youngster develop as expected.
