Popular Finn, Jari-Matti Latvala, will make his WRC return in Sweden, despite being dropped from the Toyota Gazoo Racing squad for 2020.
The 34-year old will drive a Yaris WRC prepared to the same specification as new works drivers Sebastien Ogier, Elfyn Evans and Kalle Rovanpera.
It will be the first event in what Latvala hopes is a five event program.
Sweden and Finland are already confirmed, but he also hopes to contest Sardinia, Portugal, and Rally GB.
"If I was to say the dream, that would include New Zealand as well, but that one is too expensive," Latvala told Autosport.
"It's very important for me to keep driving next year.
"This year has been a difficult one, it's been quite a stormy season for me in my private life too, but I see next year more like a pause than stopping.
"I am 34 now, and I still think I have another good couple of years in me."
There is talk that Latvala could run as part of a second Toyota team, alongside Toyota protege Takamoto Katsuta, who will start all eight European WRC rounds and Rally Japan.
