Amir Khan has allegedly agreed a big-money deal to take on Manny Pacquiao next April.
The Bolton scrapper has set up a Las Vegas showdown with the Filipino after failing to secure a bout with Floyd Mayweather Jr, according to the Daily Mail.
Khan's father Shah has been quoted as saying that his son has agreed terms for the fight and sent off the relevant paperwork to Pacquiao's promoter Bob Arum.
"Our paperwork went off to Arum on Friday and every point is covered," he told the tabloid.
"The location is definitely the US. The date in April may vary by a week or so but April is the month."
Khan versus Pacquiao is reportedly scheduled to take place on April 9.
