Louis Walsh is set for a sensational return to The Xfactor.
The Mayo man will make a shock return this season, replacing Nick Grimshaw.
“Simon didn’t really want Louis to go in the first place,” a source told the UK Sun.
“He’s doing all he can to sign him for the next series. Louis is up for it.
“Simon wants an older person back after admitting last year’s series was too youthful, which might have made more people go to Strictly,” the insider added.
It comes after this week’s announcement that Dermot O’Leary is returning to host the ITV talent show.
