"I want to thank everyone for the unbelievable support,” Hearn wrote to followers this week on Instagram. “You have been heard.
"Talks have now reopened for Wembley. Let’s make history with one of the biggest sporting moments Britain has ever seen.”
Discussions on an stateside fight reportedly emerged amid a desire from backers to maximise a potential television audience.
The decision to potentially take the fight away from Britain has been met with significant pusback from multiple parties however.
Is Wembley saga truly over for Fury-Joshua?
DAZN News correspondent Andrew Steel
Here comes the latest twist in boxing's biggest soap opera - but for British fight fans, it might be the one they've been wanting.
News from Eddie Hearn that Wembley Stadium is back on the table for Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua is quite the beat though.
For ages, it has felt like New York City or bust, with the Matchroom boss and his main man seemingly willing to walk away.
Perhaps common sense - and public pressure - has prevailed. But if this story has shown anything, it is a capacity to change fast.
Either way, time is running out to make that reported November date. There will be more on this soon enough to disentangle too.
