Louis Walsh recently said he was “done” with the X Factor and rumours are swirling about who will replace the long-standing judge.
Robbie Williams and Noel Gallagher have been mentioned but there’s a new favourite in the mix, none other than One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson.
Could Louis be the new X Factor judge!?
According to The Irish Mirror, Louis is the “hot favourite” at 7/4 with Robbie coming in at 2/1.
Louis’s ex-bandmate Zayn Malik is 12/1 and Noel Gallagher is 66/1.
A spokesperson for Ladbrokes said:Â “Walsh has been dropping hints for years but it finally looks like all retirement bets are off.
“When it comes to his replacement, the odds suggest One Direction may lose another member”.
However, One Direction are touring until the end of October and this would clash with the new season of the X Factor.
We will be keeping a very close eye on this one!
