EA Sports Brilliantly Troll Michy Batshuayi By 'Editing His FIFA 18 Stats'

Batshuayi and EA Sports' back and forth banter is one the great things on Twitter.

The entertaining Twitter interaction between Michy Batshuayi and EA Sports is still continuing, with EA trolling the Chelsea and Belgian striker by 'editing' his FIFA 18 statistics.

Batshuayi is of course, absolutely brilliant on social media and can't help but going after EA Sports every time he finds the net - something he's managed to do on five occasions in his seven outings this season.

His latest strike was a dramatic late winner to claim a vital Champions League away win against Atletico Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano and though he initially refrained, he just had to mention EA Sports given that everyone was expecting him to continue to pester them to improve his rating.

With EA's head honchos understandably busy with the worldwide release of FIFA 18 on September 29, it took them three days to respond. But it was worth the wait, as EA jokingly stated that Batshuayi was definitely upping all of his stats up to 99 once he gave FIFA 18 a bash, and sent him this video:

Batshuayi hasn't responded as of yet, but you can bank on the former Marseille man having something to say about it, given that he's the Twitter king and all.

The 23-year old was on form on the pitch when he scored that stoppage time winner to sink Atleti, and followed it up with some typically brilliant Tweets.

He posted a photoshopped image of him in a Batman costume and joked that when a game needs a late winner, give '#Batsman' a call.

And he also trolled his former Chelsea teammate Diego Costa, who has returned to his beloved Atleti and watched from the stands as his former employers narrowly overcame his current club.

Sharing a photo of himself with Costa and another former-Chelsea-now at Atletico striker Fernando Torres, Batshuayi couldn't help but needle Costa a little bit more.

What a character he is.
