It comes following reports that Joey was set to earn a whopping £250,000 with a club tour following his Love Island dumping.
Despite not making the final Joey – who is already worth £8million – could be set for the last laugh with a potential quarter of a million to bank if he does a club tour.
The Sun reports that his team has a string of £6,000-an-hour UK dates lined up where fans can take selfies and party with the star.
It comes after it was revealed at the start of this year’s series of Love Island that he wasn’t being paid any more to be on the show than the other contestants – which is around £375 a week.
The £375 a week to appear on the show is to cover the Islanders’ rent and bills back at home while they are away, and Joey received the same as everyone else.
A TV source told MailOnline at the time: ‘Joey is being treated like any other Love Island contestant, he’s playing by the same rules and won’t be given any preferential treatment.
‘He hasn’t been paid an appearance fee or any money at all for signing up to the show, not a penny.
‘On Love Island, it is all about the exposure and for Joey, it means more than that too… He’s looking for someone to settle down with, so it’s not about the money he can make on the other side.’

Ayo Odukoya and Jess Spencer also received several votes from the ex Islanders however it was ultimately Joey and Jessy who had to leave.
Joey and Jessy received a total of seven votes, while Ayo and Jess received four, meaning they were one of four couples who have made it to Monday’s final.

‘Your future on Love Island will be decided by some very familiar faces.’
Then, a series of former Islanders made their way into the villa, and headed to the firepit.
The group were then asked to choose which couple they wanted to send home and they opted for Joey and Jessy.
Joey subsequently claimed that he was leaving the villa ‘at a good time’.
He explained: ‘It feels good to be leaving.
‘I feel like I had an amazing run in there, went through the full cycle of emotions you get in the villa, and if you have to leave, you might as well go out with a bang … It’s my birthday on Monday so feels like I’m going out at a good time.’
Joey – who first found fame on The Only Way Is Essex more than a decade ago – later explained that he ‘never expected to win the show’.
