Amir Khan hints he has one fight in mind before agreeing to take on Kell Brook
Khan has not fought since being knocked out by Saul Alvarez last year while Kell Brook is on the comeback trail after losing his IBF Welterweight belt to Errol Spence Jr
AMIR KHAN is on his way back, and has Kell Brook in his sights.
Khan is back in the gym after an enforced absence due to injury and personal issues.
But the Bolton man insists he is at the peak of his powers as a thirty-year-old and is planning a warm up fight before a potential War of the Roses with the Yorkshireman Brook.
Brook has not been seen since losing his IBF Welterweight belt to Errol Spence in May.
And Khan has not fought since his crushing defeat to Saul Alvarez and wants himself and Brook to take a few tune up fights and build up to a huge blockbuster within the next 18 months.
Khan told : “For me and Kell Brook at the moment, I think the fight could be bigger if we both get a couple of wins.

"If we get a couple of wins, I think it will be a massive fight. It will be a big fight now, but it will be a massive fight if we wait maybe another fight.
"One hundred per cent, I would love that fight.
"A lot has happened in my life, with personal issues and family drama and everything, with the hand operation," said Khan. "I think it's time now where I come back and I shine.
"I'm only 30 years old. People forget how old I am. I'm at the peak of my career now.
"I can't wait to get back into the ring and I want to fight December time."
Khan also stressed he wants his comeback fight to be back in Britain, the former Light-welterweight champion has not fought in the UK since beating Julio Diaz in Sheffield on points in 2013.
Khan added: “I think the next fight might have to be in the UK, my home is England and I'm a British fighter. I want to fight in front of my fans in the UK."
