“We hope to be in a position to announce it next week, that’s what we’re looking to do,” Warren told Sky Sports on Sunday.
“So keep watching this space, and it’s going to be a good opponent – it’s going to be good for him. He can’t afford to slip up, because obviously AJ has had his fights in a couple of weeks.

Former Olympic heavyweight gold medalist Audley Harrison has urged exciting prospect Moses Itauma not to rush into a world title fight with Daniel Dubois.
“(Joshua) has to come through, Tyson has to come through, and then the big one will be in November.”
Warren also confirmed that a top-10 ranked opponent will be unveiled for up and coming heavyweight Moses Itauma, known as a contender waiting for a world title shot.
“Moses (Itauma) is fighting in Manchester, we are going to announce it.

Following his split-decision victory over Derek Chisora, Deontay Wilder said he could potentially fight next – and would be open to a fight with British star Moses Itauma.
“He’s fighting top 10 heavyweights, hoping to get the fight we want. Again, a great heavyweight fight.
“This department is on fire.”
