British stars AJ and Dubois will clash at Wembley Stadium on Saturday 21 September.
This match will be Joshua’s fourth match at the home ground of English football.
This will be Dubois’ first time fighting under the Arch, though.
The winner will also receive the IBF title, with Usyk reporting he will either be stripped of the belt or have it relinquished.
But more importantly, this would set up a heavyweight fight against either Fury or Usyk.
The two kings of the division will rematch on December 21 in Saudi Arabia, with Usyk handing Fury the first loss of his career in May.
And either Joshua or Dubois will get a chance to fight for all the heavyweight titles next year.
AJ was previously selected to fight in a money-making fight with Deontay Wilder.

But the American suffered an unexpected defeat to Joseph Parker on Christmas Day last year and also lost to Zhilei Zhang earlier this month, ending his chances of winning the match.
Dubois emerged as the clear contender as he bounced back from losses to Joe Joyce and Oleksandr Usyk with impressive wins over Jarrell Miller and Filip Hrgovic.
