Jude Bellingham and his younger brother Jobe shared a heart-warming reunion as the pair enjoyed a brief moment together upon reporting for England duty.

The Bellingham brothers don't often get to spend time with each other during the season with Jobe starring at Championship leaders Sunderland and Jude becoming one of the world's best players with Real Madrid.

However, the duo were able to spend some valuable time in each other's company after reporting for national team duty at England's St George's Park training base on Monday.

Jude flew over from Madrid to link-up with Lee Carsley's first-team squad ahead of upcoming Nations League fixtures against Greece and Ireland, while his younger brother was named in the Three Lions' Under-21 squad for the first time.

The younger sibling has been rewarded after a stunning start to the season with Sunderland, scoring two goals and starting all but one game as the Black Cats surged to the top of the Championship standings.

Jobe continues to emulate his brother's rise through England's youth ranks and was given a rare insight of mixing with senior players by sharing a moment with his older brother upon arrival at the national team's headquarters.

The pair beamed as they embraced with the two brothers taking delight in the rare moment with aspirations of one day playing alongside each other at a major tournament.

Jobe will be hoping to impress England selectors as he vies for starting minutes in upcoming Young Lions clashes against against Spain and the Netherlands.

Both will then head back to their respective clubs with their mum, Denise, overseeing Jude's career in Spain, while dad Mark continues to remain in England with Jobe.

The international break comes at a good time for Jude who rejoins his England colleagues after finally scoring his first goal of the season with Real Madrid at the weekend.

A difficult season so far has seen the midfielder struggle in a deeper role at Madrid after being forced back by the blockbuster arrival of Kylian Mbappe.

Interim boss Carsley will be without eight first-team stars after key players at top Premier League clubs withdrew with injuries.

That has forced Carsley into making several brave decisions with the England coach deciding to hand first caps to three players including Aston Villa forward Morgan Rogers.
