Ahead of his rematch with the Ukrainian in August, the 33-year-old opted to bring in Robert Garcia as his coach.
Despite looking a lot more aggressive than in his first loss, Joshua opted to replace the renowned Garcia after that bout.
He has now been searching for his next trainer, but his promoter Eddie Hearn has confirmed on @DAZNBoxing that the Brit has now picked the man he wants.
The Matchroom chief is remaining tight-lipped on the identity of the coach.
But boxing fans may not have to wait too long to discover who it is as Hearn also revealed AJ will start his camp next week.
He will fly out to the USA, where he will be based throughout his camp, next week to begin preparations for his next bout.
Joshua is due to return to the ring on April 1 in London against an as-yet-unnamed opponent.
He is expected to face a top-20 ranked fighter – but a host of bigger names want a shot at the London 2012 hero.
