JUDE BELLINGHAM shared a heartwarming childhood photo of him and his brother Jobe after both earned England call-ups at the same time for the first time ever.

The Three Lions’ boss Thomas Tuchel announced his squad for the upcoming international break that will include Nations League clashes against Croatia at home and Spain away.

Tuchel had a few surprises up his sleeve, and one of them included a maiden senior call-up for Borussia Dortmund star Jobe, 21.

That means Real Madrid superstar Jude, 23, and his younger brother could soon play together for the first time ever in a senior professional football match.

And the older Bellingham commemorated that extraordinary milestone by sharing an old pic of them together on Instagram Stories.

The photo showed them smiling from ear to ear and embracing while wearing jerseys of their childhood club Birmingham.

The Bellingham bros have had a very similar journey in football as they both started out in the Brummie giants’s academy.

And after Jude made his big move to Real from Dortmund in 2023, Jobe followed in his brother’s footsteps two years later as he signed for the Bundesliga giants, where the former spent three seasons.

Tuchel revealed Jude had urged him to give Jobe the nod as he had been looking forward to finally playing with him since 2024.

The older Bellingham said two years ago: “We’ve played together for so long in the street and to play with my brother Jobe for England would be the biggest dream of my life.

“That would mean more than any of the trophies, nothing would even get close to that.. Nothing.”

And Jude got his wish of potentially sharing the pitch with his brother on the grandest stage.

Tuchel has given a number of English stars their maiden cap since taking over in 2025.

That includes Myles Lewis-Skelly, Dan Burn, Jarell Quansah, Alex Scott, Rio Ngumoha, Nico O’Reilly and Elliot Anderson.
