If I am interpretating right it has to be Piccolo.
You aren't interpreting. You are just projecting your fan wishes unto a statement, that couldn't possibly imply Piccolo regaining prominence. The only saving grace is the fact that the japanese language can be notoriously ambigious, enough so that even Herms' translation might not properly reflect that.
Surely he can't give away such a big spoiler like Future Trunks returning.
They say a certain character related to the future will appear and that the character in question was very popular, which fits Future Trunks to a tee(even more popular than Ultimate Gohan during the battle with Gotenks-Buu and that was after having zero involvement in the story the entire arc!).
Toriyama himself spoiled they'd be fighting their U6 counterparts and they'd travel to other universes and now he's even implying the next villain will have white hair.
And neither he nor Toyotaro directly state it either way. They are just building the hype, perhaps to have even more people jump on board the Super bandwagon.
No one knows for certain just how much Toriyama is willing to spoil, so don't act like this implication is somehow impossible.
