The heavyweight clash between Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte is set to be staged at Wembley Stadium in front of 90,000 fans.
Fury will defend his heavyweight title against Whyte after the WBC ordered the clash between the heavyweight pair to take place by the end of April.
April 23 is the targeted date for the bout to take place after Frank Warren won purse bids with a bumper £31 million offer to promote the event.
According to Boxing Scene, the promotion has now agreed to stage the event at the iconic stadium providing they can reach a deal before the deadline of February 21 which has been set by the WBC.
The iconic stadium has been a huge part of the career of the pair's heavyweight rival Anthony Joshua who fought Wladimir Klitschko and Alexander Povetkin in front of record-breaking crowds.
Carl Froch and George Groves also famously fought in an all-British rematch that set to the precedent for boxing events to be held in the National stadium during the modern era.
The Principality Stadium in Cardiff was also believed to be in the running to stage the clash but it now looks as if Fury will make his UK return in front of 90,000 fans.
Fury has not fought in the UK since his victory over Francesco Pianeta which was staged in Belfast as his historic comeback to the heavyweight division started out.
Whyte was largely silent after Fury's co-promoter Warren won purse bids as he awaited news on the contracts.
Hearn who has spoken about the fight in recent weeks has confirmed that Whyte is now "ready" to sign the contract and focus on his long-awaited world title shot.
“At the weekend, yeah," Hearn told talkSPORT when asked if the contract had now been received.
“So it’s being reviewed now by Dillian’s lawyers. I’ve got a meeting with him tomorrow. In purse bids, it’s a simple bout agreement, so it depends what comes with the contract that’s been sent.

“I don’t envisage many problems. “I’ve got no involvement. I lost the purse bids. I work fight-by-fight with Dillian, he’s a close friend of mine.
“So I’ll sit down with Dillian and say, ‘What do you want me to do?’ We’ve got a lot of fights going on, but I’ll always back him and I want him to win the fight. We’ll just chat and say, ‘This is our involvement.'”
Whyte is expected to earn a guaranteed £6 million for the bout after the WBC ordered the purse split at 80 per cent in the champion's favour.
Meanwhile Fury will earn a career-high payday on his return to the UK and could set up a clash with the winner of Joshua's rematch with Usyk.
Fury's promoter Bob Arum has believes Whyte has a real chance of posing a tougher test to his charge than Deontay Wilder due to his "big punching" style.
