A good week for Jordan Henderson has got even better, with the announcement that he will feature on the cover of FIFA 16.
The Liverpool and England midfielder was named as the new captain of his club this week, succeeding Steven Gerrard, and will now join Lionel Messi on the cover of the game's UK edition.
Remarkably, Henderson is the first Liverpool player to ever feature on the cover of the EA Sports game, after seeing off the competition of Sergio Aguero, Thibaut Courtois and Harry Kane in a public vote.

Speaking of his pride at the news, the 25-year-old said: "The support I’ve had from fans around the world over the past few weeks, particularly Liverpool supporters, has been overwhelming. It’s great to realise every young footballer’s dream and I’m grateful to everyone who voted”.
