Tyson Fury calls on 'chicken' Francis Ngannou to fight him at Wembley this year

Tyson Fury has goaded Francis Ngannou on social media to fight him at Wembley this year - despite announcing his retirement in April.

The Gypsy King has remained vocal on Twitter and Instagram throughout his two months out of the ring, taking pops at Jake Paul as he prepares to fight his brother Tommy Fury. But the heavyweight champion might be getting itchy feet already.

An ongoing feud with UFC star Ngannou ramped up in a series of tweets, including one out of the blue where he posted a picture of the Cameroonian with a chicken on his head. He said: "Thought you wanted some smoke @francis_ngannou. Lets do a propper fight! Wembley Stadium 2022."
