Robbie Williams is one of the names in the running for a judging position on the next season of The Voice UK.

If successful, former Take That star Robbie will join Sir Tom Jones, will.i.am and Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson as a judge and mentor.

According to Paddy Power, the 40-year-old has the highest odds to replace the Red Blooded Woman singer with odds of 6/1.

While Jessie J has odds of 8/1 to return and Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie is at 16/1.

Kylie told fans of her decision to leave the show via Twitter and Facebook earlier this month, citing her upcoming tour plans as a reason for bowing out.

The 45-year-old said: “Hi Lovers, thanks to all of you for your incredible support throughout this past season of The Voice UK.

“I’m sad to say that, due to the timing of my European tour, I won’t be back for Season 4. I absolutely loved my time on the show and I’ll miss all of the incredible people who were part of my experience,” the singer said.
