Diehard Everton supporter Tony Bellew may have the opportunity to fight for the WBC Cruiserweight title at Goodison Park.
The Daily Star is reporting Bellew is looking to arrange a fight with Ilunga Makabu on June 4, with the winner to take home the vacant belt.
The fight will be the 33-year-old's third shot at the world title.
"My dad [Barry] spoke to Everton chairman Bill Kenwright because they go back a long way and they are chomping at the bit," Bellow's promoter Eddie Hearn said.
"We are working on the dates now. It is a novelty. How big is it? I think it does 20,000. Does it do 30,000? Or 40,000? It could do. I don't know. It is a one off.
"It has gone from a pipe dream to being on the verge of reality."
Goodison Park featured as the main venue for the title fight in 'Creed', the spin-off of the 'Rocky' film series, which saw Bellew make his acting debut as 'Pretty' Ricky Conlan, Creed's main opponent.
