Tyson Fury has announced he is set to make a comeback to boxing on 9 June.

The former world heavyweight champion is scheduled to enter the ring for the first time since 2015 against an as yet unnamed opponent in Manchester.

Fury, 29, has not fought since claiming the IBF, WBA and WBO world titles from Wladimir Klitschko.

He was suspended in 2016 amid "anti-doping and medical issues" and accepted a backdated two-year ban in December.

However, his boxing licence was reinstated in January by the British Boxing Board of Control.
