Corrie fans think they have figured out Pat Phelan’s next victim

He’s baaaaaack.

Pat Phelan is officially making his way back to the cobbles – and it’s going to spell bad news for one of the Weatherfield residents.

The bruised and battered murderous builder has been keeping a low profile – far, far, away from the Street.

However, even in his absence, he’s been keeping an eye on those he thinks have wronged him – and who he might want to take his revenge on.

When Gary ends up tracking him down to a campsite in Wales and dragging him back to Weatherfield, his pent up fury is unleashed.

A new trailer released by soap bosses over the weekend hinted at Phelan’s return.

It shows the thought-to-be-dead Phelan appearing in front of a number of his previous targets, including Eileen, Gary, Sarah, Nicola and Seb.

Terrified, the group end up back-to-back in the middle of the street as Phelan (and 16 other versions of the murderous builder) circle in on them.

However, fans think they may have figured out who Phelan will be coming after in his scheme for revenge.

Coronation Street recently released a new image of Nicola Rubinstein lying unconscious on the ground as a worried Eileen Grimshaw hovers over her.

And fans reckon that the man seen looming over the pair of them is none other than Phelan himself.

One person asked:

“Is that not phelan stood in pic, looks like his bag??”

Someone else added:

“Well this is probably somehow gonna tie into Phelan being back.”

Another one commented:

“I think Phelan did something to make this happen…”

  • The dramatic week of Coronation Street will play out from May 28 to June 1.
