Piers Morgan is close to agreeing a deal to present a primetime chatshow for ITV1, according to a report.
The contract, said to be worth £2m, would tie the Britain's Got Talent judge to ITV.
The Sun quoted an anonymous source at the broadcaster.
"He’s doing a lot for ITV and it makes sense to get him on an exclusive deal," he said. "We have the biggest names on TV with ITV - Simon Cowell and Ant and Dec. Now we have Morgan!"
