The 37-year-old will be desperate to get himself back towards title contention by avenging his defeat to Zhang earlier this year.
Joyce was handed the first loss of his professional career when the two met at the Copper Box in April.
Ahead of the rematch, Fury has claimed that he knows the “secret” to Joyce defeating Zhang.
In a video posted to social media, the Gypsy King said: “This is a message to big Joe Joyce.
“Joe I saw you got the Zhang fight coming up again.
“If you want some proper southpaw from someone who’s bigger, fatter, quicker, harder puncher, everything than Zhang, please come up to Morecambe and do some sparring with me.
“It can only improve it, make it better.
“And trust me on this, I’ve got a secret for you and I know how to beat that Zhang – chop him down like an old oak tree.

“The offer is there Joe, get yourself down to Morecambe Bay and do as many rounds with myself. Get up there, can’t say any better than that.”
A smirking Fury, 34, did include quite a big catch, however.
He added: “I won’t charge you a lot, just £100,000 a round.”
The Gypsy King does not currently have a fight booked.
But promoter Frank Warren is hopeful that the WBC heavyweight champion’s next opponent can be revealed soon.
Speaking to 5 Live, he said: “I’m hoping in the next week or so we’ll be in a position to announce something.”
He added that he hopes the bout can be “a game-changer for the sport”.
