Last year, asked about his love of Manchester United, Eubank said: “I know these guys, I’ve followed them for years. They’re a great bunch of boys. I’m close with a few of them.

“We’re athletes and they appreciate the things that I do in the boxing ring. We all know how hard and dedicated you have to be to make it to the top.

"These guys are at the top of their sport, so we vibe with each other. The energy is very exciting.”

Eubank, 34, has been out of the ring since he beat Liam Smith in a rematch last September.

He has been spending his summer in Las Vegas training and playing poker into the early hours with Brazil star Neymar Jr at some of the city's biggest casinos.

The boxer still wants to face Canelo Alvarez despite opting to sign a new deal with UK-based promoter Boxxer.

He was in talks to face Mexican Alvarez in September and was the front runner until Edgar Berlanga got the fight.

But now he’s signed up with Ben Shalom it has cast doubt if he will land a shot against the undisputed super-middleweight champion.

He could now face a potential Billy Joe Saunders rematch - although he’s been out of the ring since 2021 - or Conor Benn, who is currently under a temporary suspension from UK Anti-Doping.
