      Eubank Jr had a rematch clause in the contract and has chosen to activate it, rather than revisit the October catchweight bout with Conor Benn which was cancelled.
      Posing on holiday in Dubai with the pink thorned flower, Eubank Jr wrote on Twitter: “This morning I activated the rematch clause via my lawyers and sent [it] to my promoters.
      “Happy Valentines Liam Smith”
      In the aftermath of his sensational win, Smith confirmed he was tied into a rerun if Eubank wanted it.

      But he thought he might swerve it, after suffering such a concussive loss.
      And Smith insists, now that he is the A-Side in negotiations, the return fixture will happen in Liverpool at his local arena and he will be getting a bigger cut of the purse.
      He said: “I think Chris will have to Tweet and talk about it right away because of an ego and a pride thing.
      “I don’t think he can say he doesn’t want the rematch.

      “But you might get a different answer in three, four or five weeks, after he has sat down and thought about it.
      “He will sit down with his team and family and if he wants the fight he can have it.

      “Of course, I accept the rematch because if I can beat him once I can beat him twice.
      “I am not worried about whose name is first on the poster but there are a couple of other things that will have to shift on to my terms, like the venue and the money.” More

      But it was the kit rather than the team now being 16 points clear in the race for the Scudetto that has got everyone talking.
      Despite playing at home, Napoli didn’t wear their famous blue strip, instead opting for a white shirt with red trim.
      And most eye catching of all, the top had huge lips planted on the bottom to represent a kiss.
      It left some supporters falling in love with the design, one said: “Napoli’s kits are so fire.”

      While others disagreed: “Don’t think I’ve ever seen anything more horrifying than this Napoli kit.”

      This is not the first time the Italian title chasers have wore a slightly unusual strip this season.
      For a friendly against Villarreal during the December break for the World Cup, the Naples-based side wore a Christmas shirt with a cartoon reindeer on it.

      Palace team-mates past and present including Jeffrey Schlupp, Mile Jedinak, Tyrick Mitchell, Odsonne Edouard and Nathaniel Clyne were among those to add their best wishes to Zaha’s post.
      And Rio Ferdinand, who was at Manchester United when Zaha joined the club in 2013, added ‘Congrats bro’, with a carrot emoji – in reference to the mega-carat diamond.
      Zaha started dating Bannister in 2016, when he was spotted with the former University of Westminster student outside her hall of residence in Wembley.
      They welcomed their first child together in November 2020, son Saint Laurence.
      On the field this season, Zaha has scored six goals in 19 Premier League appearances under Patrick Vieira and missed a chunk of the season to represent Ivory Coast at the Africa Cup of Nations.
