"Tyson is going to be back in the ring with Wilder on February 22," he told talkSPORT.
“And they will fight again, irrespective of who wins, in the summer.
“So that, at the moment, is all tied up.”
The news means Anthony Joshua is likely to be made to wait before he can take on either of Fury or Wilder.
The Brit set his sights on becoming undisputed world heavyweight champion after winning his rematch with Andy Ruiz Jr.
Meanwhile, Fury has accepted Joshua's offer to spar him ahead of the rematch with Wilder.
Fury said: "I just saw a video of Joshua saying he'd love to come me in camp and that I'd fight him quicker than Wilder - that's for sure.
"When I beat Wilder I will fight you AJ no problem and I'd love to have you in camp.
"I'd really love to have you in camp for this fight and give Wilder a proper beating."I hope you mean it because I'd love to have you in training camp. Thanks very much and well done in your last fight, congratulations."
