James DeGale would welcome British battles with Callum Smith and George Groves if he wins the January unification clash with WBC champion Badou Jack.
The IBF title holder can add the WBC belt when he battles Jack at the Barclays Center in New York on January 14, live on Sky Sports.
Smith, who is the WBC mandatory challenger, is expected to face the winner and the Harlesden fighter is keen for a London clash at either The O2, or at The Emirates.
I won't be losing sleep over boxing Callum Smith. It's a massive fight over here and I'll be looking forward to it.
DeGale told Sky Sports News HQ: "That is the plan. Next April, May time I'm coming back home 100 per cent. When I get through Jack - which is a hard fight by the way - I'm coming back at The O2 or The Emirates, we're going to do it.
"I won't be losing sleep over boxing Callum Smith. It's a massive fight over here and I'll be looking forward to it.
"If I win against Badou Jack, my mandatory challenger is Callum Smith. Can you imagine that as a homecoming at The O2 or the Emirates?"
Groves is set to challenge Fedor Chudinov for the WBA super-middleweight belt, with a date and venue to be confirmed, and DeGale hopes his bitter rival can pave the way for a rematch by winning a world title.
"I'm hoping he comes through his WBA world title shot, because it's his fourth chance," said DeGale, who suffered a narrow points defeat to Groves in 2011.
"He's been knocked out before, he's had three chances, so I think he's proven that he's not elite, he's not world class.
"But if he's got any chance, then this is his chance against Chudinov, so hopefully he comes through that and the end of next year - this is all thinking ahead - that can be a massive match-up."
