The news still leaves a space for the band to play a headline slot at Glastonbury Festival, which takes place from 21st - 25th June next year.

If Alex Turner and co do play the festival again, the slot would mark their third stint headlining the Somerset festival after topping the bill in 2007 and 2013.

A source told The Sun: “Alex Turner and the band are coming back to Glastonbury, and this time their set is going to be even bigger and better.

“The lads have signed on the dotted line and will return to the Pyramid Stage next June.

“It is really special for them to be doing a hat-trick on that stage and it is something they have wanted to do for a while.

“After the festival dates lined up with their upcoming tour they said they couldn’t not play there again.

“The band are in the process of putting together their team and are working on making their performance one of Glastonbury’s most memorable.”
