Witkoff will also meet with his counterparts from France, Britain and Germany on Sunday and Monday, the official added.
The Wall Street Journal was first to report the meeting.
The choice to send Witkoff, who has led negotiations with Ukraine and Russia regarding a U.S. peace proposal, highlights Washington's growing urgency to bridge remaining gaps with Kyiv over the plan's terms.
French President Emmanuel Macron, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz were also expected to attend, the Journal said.
On Thursday, the White House said Trump would only send an official to the meeting if he felt there was enough progress to be made in peace talks.
