Football's Next Star is an Irish reality competition television series broadcast on RTÉ Two under the TRTÉ brand in late 2012. The show was based on the 2010 British television series of the same name, and aimed to find a young football player who could be the "next big thing" and reward them with a professional contract at Celtic F.C. in Scotland.
The series was presented by Westlife member and professional goalkeeper Nicky Byrne.
