The winner will look to face WBC champion Tyson Fury next in an historic undisputed bout, despite the Gypsy King announcing his retirement after knocking out Dillian Whyte earlier this year.
Joshua was heavily criticised after opting against using his evident physical advantages last time out, instead looking to outbox the boxer in a move that proved disastrous.
The 32-year-old has since left long-term coach Rob McCracken and teamed up with Robert Garcia, however, insisting he now plans to hunt for the knockout.
Usyk, undoubtedly one of the pound-for-pound stars in the sport, has been given a full camp after taking a step away from boxing to help defend his country amid the ongoing Russian invasion, with the fight pushed back from May and then July.
Joshua will be hoping he can avenge the second defeat of his career, having done so against Andy Ruiz Jr, also in Saudi Arabia, back in 2019.
