David Haye's trainer Adam Booth reveals that the former heavyweight world champion will not be facing a British opponent when he returns to boxing in June.

Trainer Adam Booth has revealed that he is in talks with five potential opponents for David Haye's return fight in June.

Haye announced on Thursday that he would return to the sport after an absence of almost a year, but Booth has insisted that he would not be facing a British opponent, ruling out a potential fight with either Tyson Fury or David Price.

Booth told reporters: "I'm talking to five top-ranked fighters at the moment. None of them are British."

The former WBA heavyweight champion has revealed that he intends to fight twice in 2013 to move towards a potential world bout fight next year.
