But the outdoor venue will be used by Tottenham Hotspur from August for a Premier League season, and would be vulnerable to the elements in the autumn, when Joshua is due to fight again.
If he is to fight in the UK next, Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, has a solution in the form of the Millennium Stadium.
The Cardiff stadium has a retractable roof and is capable of generation a fantastic atmosphere when the roof is closed.
"I don't think he'll box again until again between September and December. It's more likely to be Cardiff's Millennium Stadium if it's in the UK," Hearn said. "We can't return to the 02, and Manchester Arena. The next phase is about the big heavyweight championship fights."Wales' national stadium holds 74,000 people, and will host the Champions League final on June 3.
The Millennium Stadium could end up hosting a rematch between Joshua and Klitschko.
Klitschko's manager has said the 41-year-old is currently on holiday and evaluating his options. It appears as though the Ukrainian will either seek a rematch with Joshua, or retire.
"Now he feels better, he's on vacation in Florida with his wife and daughter, relaxing a little bit and he’ll make his decision very quickly when he gets back, the latest at the beginning of June, or maybe in between, what his next step will be," Bernd Boente told Boxing News.
"That next step could be the rematch or that he retires, but that’s up to him."https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_UK/status/862145177250652161 Boente also claimed that Klitschko, who knocked Joshua down in the sixth round before getting stopped in the 11th round, is no longer disappointed, because he feels he was unlucky to lose the bout.
"He's not that disappointed anymore, he knows that he made some mistakes but he also knows that he could beat Anthony. "He showed that. Two, three more punches in round six or even round seven and he would’ve been the winner."
