Liam Gallagher has responded to Oasis reunion claims.
Last week it was reported by The Mirror that the Britpop booked three reunion shows at Wembley Stadium for this July, before talks allegedly broke down.
According to the outlet, the a source: "An Oasis reunion has been hoped for for years. This year would have been the big moment, 30 years on from their debut album Definitely Maybe.
"But until now, no one has known how close Liam and Noel came to making it a reality. It doesn’t get much closer than booking Wembley, and their teams were devastated when it all collapsed yet again.
“But the fact they made it to that point shows there’s a will on both sides. The hope is it will be a case of not if, but when."
However, when asked about the so-called reunion shows by a fan on X, the Manchester rocker quipped: "Nobody’s told me maybe there getting a new singer like the dude out of queen".

Liam was of course referring to Queen and their touring singer and former Adam Lambert, who first found fameon American Idol in 2009.
Oasis might not be set for a reunion anytime soon, but Liam Gallagher is giving fans the closest thing to it so far, by celebrating 30 years of the band's Definitely Maybe album.
However, Liam also maintained he did previously reach out to Noel's management team, telling MOJO magazine back in February: "I did call him! Well, my people called Noel’s management team."
He added: "We put an offer on the table for an Oasis thing – because we got offered it – and he said no. It was a big tour, a lot of money. He turned it down. I get it, he’s got a divorce going down. I’ll do the ‘Definitely Maybe’ thing and have a nice time without him."
Liam continues his Definitely Maybe dates tonight (24th June) with the second of his two dates at 3Arena Dublin with Cast and his son Gene's band VILLANELLE as support.
