The tickets have only just gone on sale, but three acts are already rumoured to be headlining next year’s Glastonbury festival.

According to reports, Radiohead, Daft Punk and The Stone Roses are all lined up to perform on the Pyramid Stage in 2017.

Festival website eFestivals has released a statement saying that ‘well-sourced information’ suggests that the trio of bands are already in talks to perform.

The statement reads: “eFestivals currently believes that next year Radiohead will be given that opportunity to headline on Saturday.

“We also strongly believe The Stone Roses are the front runners to top the bill on Sunday, and while we are less certain on the third headlining act, we have had what should be well-sourced information several months ago, that it’s supposedly Daft Punk topping the bill on the Friday.”

The site has correctly predicted a number of the festival’s headliners in previous years and is regarded as a reliable source of information.

While none of the bands have commented on the reports, Radiohead’s Ed O’Brien recently admitted that he’d be keen to perform at the festival.

“I would love to. I go to Glastonbury every year, it’s my carnival,” he said.

“To be asked to play at Glastonbury again would be magic. I also think Glastonbury is like our spiritual home. It is the mother of all festivals… there’s nothing like that one… It would be great to play there."

Daft Punk have also been rumoured to be making an appearance for the last few years, while The Stone Roses recently released their first new music for 20 years.
