BREAKING: Pictures Emerge Of Chris Smalling In Hospital After Reportedly Being Stung By Jellyfish

In one of the more bizarre stories you'll see today, England international Chris Smalling has been hospitalised after he was 'stung by a jellyfish' while learning to surf in Bali, according to reports.

Images have emerged online claiming to show the 26-year-old defender on a drip in hospital with his head bandaged and in a brace.

The pictures show Smalling signing autographs, with written proof that the player was admitted to hospital.

It is still not 100% clear how Smalling was hospitalised, as some reports claim that he fell in the toilet hotel while others believe he was injured while learning to surf.

Smalling jetted off to the Indonesian island after England's early exit at Euro 2016.
