Tottenham star Jan Vertonghen and his international team-mate Romelu Lukaku aren’t planning on wasting their summer vacation and seem to have found themselves new careers for when they’re finished with football.

The Belgian duo swapped the training pitch for something with an even faster pace as they pulled a shift behind the counter at a branch of McDonalds in Brussels this weekend, where they were also joined by Chelsea forward Eden Hazard and his brother Thorgan.

Posting on Instagram Vertonghen wrote: “When you in McDonalds for the day”, with one commenter joking this was the price Everton striker Lukaku had to pay for missing out on the Golden Boot to Spurs striker Harry Kane.

Vertonghen and Lukaku weren’t just confined to flipping burgers and ventured out to serve a few lucky customers as they took a break from preparations for tonight’s friendly against the Czech Republic.

Belgium boss Roberto Martinez will be without captain Eden Hazard for that match and the following World Cup qualifier in Estonia after the Chelsea star fractured his ankle in training.

Hazard now faces the prospect of missing the start of the season and is likely to need an operation.
