That's a big assumption though. I sure hope it's happening and it would clearly be the most logical and
profitable thing to do after current run of Super but there are 2 big 'buts'
1) any post-EOZ series would officially wipe out GT from the
quasi-canon in a spectacular fashion. No excuse aiming to reconcile the two series would fly this time. I think Toei
is ready to do that and it wouldn't be a big loss especially with quick replacement in form of a brand new content to sell and profit from, but you can't rule the possibility that some executives at Toei may be just fundamentally against openly throwing GT into the bin, especially as it was a series made almost exclusively by Toei. Pride, sense of ownership etc. can factor here heavily
2) Toriyama's past comments how "everyone in EOZ is so old!" which never made sense because there was an entire generation of young fighters but nonetheless, clearly at least at some point he was visibly not ready to move on from Goku/Vegeta generation onto the new one. Perhaps it changed, or perhaps he would have a different idea how to make it work this time but the possibility that he really really doesn't want to do anything in that period remains
So as much as I'm hoping for it, I'm not gonna be putting my bets on it until there's a credible leak or an official confirmation. It would be major move. Logical, practical, fan-appeasing, story-appropirate (following Super) and business-friendly but still a bold move required on Toei's part in particular so I have my doubts
