Liverpool star Curtis Jones laps up the sunshine on his holidays with partner Saffie Khan just days after disappointing end to the season with England
Curtis Jones has been spotted lapping up the sunshine on holiday in Italy with his partner Saffie Khan, following a disappointing end to the season with England.
The midfielder has earned a well-deserved rest after a campaign in which he helped Liverpool to their 20th league title.
Jones, 24, notched up 46 appearances for the Reds in all competitions in the season just gone, with 33 of them coming in the Premier League as Arne Slot 's side romped to their record-equalling triumph.
Following a glorious end to the club season, Jones was called up by Thomas Tuchel to play a part in England's June internationals.
The boyhood Red started in an unfamiliar role during the Three Lions' drab narrow victory over Andorra - who are ranked 173rd in the world - while also getting a brief cameo in the worrying defeat to Senegal.
He hasn't taken long to get the loss off his mind, however, jetting off to Portofino with Khan to embrace the sunshine that is currently absent from the UK.

The pair, who welcomed a baby girl into the world last October, could be seen relaxing by what looked to be a private pool.
23-year-old Saffie - who is signed to The Muse agency - has been dating Jones for a number of years, with the pair first appearing together on social media back in May 2021.
In May of last year, the couple announced that they were expecting a baby girl with a heartwarming video montage.
They then enjoyed some downtime as they awaited the arrival of their first child, with Jones not travelling to Germany for Euro 2024.
The Liverpool footballer was the first to announce the happy news when their child was born, in a sweet update as he shared his daughter's name with fans.
Alongside a series of adorable photos, he wrote: 'Giselle Delilah Jones. 13.10.24 You are our entire world.'
In the update, shared to Instagram, Curtis cradled his baby daughter in the hospital before carrying her home in a car seat.
Another photo of Saffie showed the family arriving home to a balloon arch and decorations that read: 'Welcome home baby Jones.'
Jones is now the Scouser in Liverpool's team after the departure of fellow Liverpool-born star Trent Alexander-Arnold, who was today unveiled as a Real Madrid player.
The midfielder was forced to deputise at right-back in April while the now Los Blancos star was out injured, and he passed his test in the Merseyside derby as Liverpool secured a mammoth three pints before sealing the title later in the month.
He was so impressive that Tuchel decided to play him there instead of Alexander-Arnold on international duty last week.
Although, Jones' performance was not quite as brilliant as two months earlier, with the majority of the Three Lions surprisingly struggling against Andorra.
