His early season form at Liverpool may not have earned him an England recall, but Daniel Sturridge is making the most of the break from club football.
The striker posed a picture of himself posing with a mystery woman in a black and white booth.
Despite leading Liverpool's goalscoring charts alongside Sadio Mane with four goals, Sturridge's return to form was not enough for Gareth Southgate to pick up the phone.
But Jurgen Klopp will be delighted that the hitman will be resting up to ensure he is fit and firing to take on Huddersfield when the Premier League returns on Saturday week.
The 29-year-old returned to Anfield in pre-season after a short-lived loan spell with West Brom in the second half of 2017-18 failed to see him find the back of the net.
Goals against West Ham, PSG and two against Chelsea have repaid Klopp's faith, even if the striker still struggles for minutes on the pitch.
Sturridge has not been able to add to his 26 England caps since appearing off the bench in a World Cup qualifying win over Lithuania 12 months ago.
He will be hoping that a further purple patch in front of goal after the current international break will see him considered for a friendly against USA a Nations League clash with Croatia.
