David Haye says he will fight Vitali Klitschko anywhere in the world for a shot at the Ukrainian's WBC heavyweight crown.
Haye is talking up a possible September 12 date in either Germany, where Klitschko lives, or the Ukraine after a back injury forced him to pull out of a showdown with Klitschko's younger brother Wladimir four weeks ago.
Shakhtar Donetsk's new 50,000 capacity Donbass Stadium, which opens on August 29, has been suggested as a possible venue, but Haye's manager and trainer Adam Booth says the former world cruiserweight champion doesn't care where the fight takes place.
Booth said: "We don't mind where it is as long as it's in a boxing ring."
Haye, who has been out of action since his win over Monte Barrett seven months ago, is keen to get back in the ring, as is Klitschko after ruling out a unification bout with WBA champ Nikolay Valuev.
"Everything is very sensitive at the moment," said Booth. "There are a lot of negotiations and discussions going on in different directions.
"I'm just doing what I can to make something happen for David."
