The pair became friends after they both signed as Red Bull athletes, although we’ll have to see if any Manchester and Liverpool rivalry seeps into the FIFA stream.

Ryan previously spoke to GINX TV about why he chose to sign with Man City, saying: “I chose Man City just because of the way they’re entering esports, and the plans that they have are just amazing.

“I can’t reveal too much of the plans they do have in store but their ambition in FIFA esports, and esports in general, was a massive selling point to me.”

Ryan Pessoa’s stream with Trent Alexander-Arnold kicks off Friday 3rd April at 7pm GMT on his official Twitch channel.
