JAKE PAUL’S team have cryptically hinted he will travel to Manchester to FINALLY fight boxing rival Tommy Fury.
The pair of celebrity fighting stars have been in talks to reschedule their grudge match once again.
But negotiations appeared to hit a standstill when Paul threatened to move onto other targets.
A period of silence followed until the YouTube star’s boxing banner Most Valuable Promotions sent out a cryptic clue.
They posted a video of Paul training with the caption: “Jake Paul coming soon to a PPV near you.”
Eagle-eyed fans noticed MVP tagged Manchester in the location of the post.

It comes after Paul offered to travel to Fury’s home of Manchester on February 18 in a bid to get the fight on.
Another deal was also in place for a week later, February 25, in Saudi Arabia for a considerable amount more money.
Fury, who is believed to have been offered £2m for the Saudi fight, insisted he wants the bout in England and would do it for FREE.
He said: “Once again I’m seeing Jake Paul s**t all over the internet. You offered Paddy Pimblett a million pound to spar.

“You offered Tyson a million-pound bet about some b****cks or other. But you don’t want to pay me much more to have a fight.
“Well I’ll go one better than that cause it’s gone past money for me now – I’m not bothered.
“I’ll fight you for free in Manchester or London, next month. Not a problem. So let’s see how game you are.
“Promoters get nothing whose trying to take everything, me and you get nothing, all proceeds will go to charity.
“I just want to fight you and put an end to you, because all this money and everything – it’s gone on too long. Take it or leave it.”
Fury, 23, fuelled further speculation as he posted on Instagram: “Fight news coming very soon.”
Twice the 2019 Love Islander has pulled out of fighting Paul, 25.
Firstly was due to a rib injury in December 2021 and then over a US visa issue in August 2022.
His travel woes rules out a bout in America, leaving Britain and the Middle East as frontrunners to host.
