Harry Kane might be on the beach but Jude Bellingham has returned to England to watch brother Jobe play for Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on Saturday.
Bellingham has travelled home for Christmas with LaLiga currently on a winter break, while the Championship is in full flow.
England captain Kane recently outlined his intention to spend his Bayern Munich 'winterpause' on the beach.
But Three Lions teammate and Real Madrid superstar Bellingham braved the English weather at the Stadium of Light to watch his younger brother in action as Sunderland took on Coventry.
Jobe started in midfield for the Black Cats and has had a fine season himself.
In 22 league appearances, he has four goals and one assist from a deeper position than his brother.
In contrast, Jude has had a stunning start to life in La Liga with Real Madrid.
In 21 appearances in all competitions, the England international has scored 17 times and assisted four.
That includes four goals and three assists in five Champions League matches for the 20-year-old.
Both Bellingham brothers made transfers in the summer with Jude joining Los Blancos from Borussia Dortmund in a deal worth up to £114million.

Jobe, meanwhile, left boyhood club Birmingham to sign for Sunderland, who had reached the Championship play-offs last season.

But they still sit seventh in the table, prior to their match against Coventry on Saturday, and have high hopes of Premier League football next season.
Real Madrid, meanwhile, are back in action on January 3 when they take on Mallorca in the league.
