Tubridy is close to securing his new job, according to reports.
Former RTÉ star Ryan Tubridy is expected to announce a new role with a British broadcaster, according to reports.
According to Extra, the popular presenter is expected to announce a new deal with Virgin Radio, a station owned by Wireless Group – a subsidiary of Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp.
If Ryan does move to the UK it will mark the beginning of a potential return to Irish airwaves as the Wireless Group oversees both Q102 in Dublin and 96FM in Cork.

Since that scandal rocked the nation, Tubs has visited several radio stations in the UK, including Virgin Radio.

Clifden’s Christmas festival takes place throughout three weekends and Tubs is set to make an appearance to kick off the fun.
It might not be a return to TV or radio just yet, as many of his fans would have expected, but it’s still a nice place to start.
There are tonnes of activities for families during the celebrations such as card making, face painting, children’s choir and a children’s hip hop class.
Rumour has it there will even be an appearance by the man himself, Santa, as well as a Christmas market.
Meanwhile, Tubridy was a guest at the Irish Post Awards this week in London, where he presented an award and kept his followers on Instagram up to date.
