The Rolling Stones are said to be considering a £1million deal to perform at Glastonbury for the first time.

The Brown Sugar rockers have been approached by festival boss Michael Eavis about playing the Somerset event this summer, the Mirror reported.

A source told the newspaper: "It wasn't an option previously but in the last seven days things have moved quickly. It's now in the band's court."

The veteran band are apparently "seriously considering" the offer.

Singer Mick Jagger told NME when asked about the festival rumours: "Glastonbury is very important. Especially to my children - highlight of their year."
