Dillian Whyte appears to be edging closer to his comeback after recovering from shoulder surgery.
The Brixton heavyweight has been out of action since losing a thrilling December fight against his bitter rival Anthony Joshua.
"Shoulder treatment," Whyte posted on Instagram alongside a picture of needles tending to his injury. "It's almost time to fight again. Fight date coming next week let's do this. #returnofthebodysnatcher."
It's almost time to fight again. Fight date coming next week.
There isn't yet any confirmation about Whyte's opponent or the date of his proposed return.
The 27-year-old, who lost his previously unbeaten record against Joshua, injured his shoulder mid-way through that grudge match.
Joshua eventually won via seventh-round knockout before going on to claim the IBF title against Charles Martin, and will next defend it against Dominic Breazeale on Sky Sports Box Office.
Whyte has been vocal about his desire to rematch Joshua, insisting his shoulder injury was a key factor to his eventual demise.
