Posters have already started to appear on the London Underground advertising 10 shows in July at the venue.
Jackson is due to make a "special announcement" this afternoon.
Fans in the UK are waiting for the pop superstar to announce a series of comeback concerts at the O2 arena in London.
Jackson fans have begun to gather outside the Lanesborough Hotel in London.
The gigs will mark the 25 year anniversary of the release of Jackson's 'Thriller' album. He last performed in 2006, at the World Music Awards, also in London.
But he disappointed fans at that event by singing just a few lines of We Are The World. He last toured 12 years ago.
The O2, in Greenwich, south-east London, is the venue where Prince played for 21 nights in 2007, and where Britney Spears is performing for eight nights in June.
Jackson would be likely to follow a similar pattern of a run of gigs at one venue, rather than an extensive tour.
His last substantial series of concerts came in 1996 and '97, when he played 82 shows in 58 cities as part of the History tour. His last album of original material came out in 2001.
