English Football Stars Flock to Spain for Summer Break
As the football season comes to a close, English football stars are making their way to Spain for a well-deserved break. The Costa del Sol and the Baleares have become the preferred destinations for these athletes, who are looking to unwind before the upcoming international matches. Among the footballers spotted in Spain were Manchester City’s Jack Grealish and Kyle Walker.
England Stars Spotted at La Sala in Marbella
England’s football stars, including Kyle Walker, Harry Maguire, and Jordan Pickford, were seen at La Sala, a popular spot in plush Puerto Banus in Marbella. The players were finally able to let loose after a grueling season. Shortly after their arrival, Jude Bellingham, an England teammate who plays for Borussia Dortmund, also visited the restaurant.

Ian Radford, the boss of La Sala, expressed his delight at the arrival of the football stars. He noted that the players were arriving in quick succession and that Jordan Pickford was planning to spend a couple of weeks with his family.
