The dust may have barely settled from this year’s Glastonbury Festival, but speculation has already begun as to who’ll be headlining next year, Gigwise said.

According to The Sun’s columnist Dan Wootton, that honour will go to Ed Sheeran in 2017. “I can reveal next year is going to be even more special for the singer,” wrote Wootton, “he’ll be headlining Glastonbury.”

He continued, “His team is holding in talks with festival organisers and given both parties are keen, the likelihood is they’ll only be one result.”

The singer is currently enjoying a break from the public eye after releasing his second album, x, back in 2014. In fact, he’s not sent so much as a tweet in 2016.

Perhaps a Glastonbury headline slot will be the perfect time to re-enter the spotlight - though given how contentious Adele’s slot was this year (even though it turned out to be one of the weekend's highlights), it’s likely he’d be a pretty controversial headliner.
