World Cup oracle Paul the Octopus is poised for a new career - as an Elvis Presley impersonator.
The psychic sea creature became a global star after 'predicting' the correct outcome of all Germany's matches in South Africa.
Paul picked winners by selecting mussels from one of two boxes decorated with national flags at the Sea Life Centre in Oberhausen, Germany.
He went on to correctly predict that Spain would win the final against Holland, reports Metro.
Now he is to be turned into an Elvis Presley tribute act by his new agent Chris Davies, from Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire.
"One of the most exciting things is that he has a record deal in place for an album, called Paul The Octopus Sings Elvis," said Mr Davies.
"There are books being written, a range of octopus toys are coming out this Christmas and there is even a new iPhone app."
