John Stones and Jesse Lingard have spent time with a talented chimp during a visit to the zoo as the pair continue to enjoy their holiday in Dubai.
Both are currently absent from England duty with Stones pulling out of Gareth Southgate's squad for the games against the Czech Republic and Montenegro with a groin problem.
Lingard, meanwhile, was deemed unfit to play for the Three Lions before being rushed back by Manchester United for their FA Cup defeat against Wolves just days later.

Both appear to be in high spirits as they continue their recovery though and spent their Saturday enjoying a visit to the local zoo.
After walking around the park and spotting several different animals, the pair were treated to some time with a skillful chimp inside a tent.
