On Saturday evening, reports claimed the three acts were set to top the bill on the Pyramid stage at the festival in June.

Eavis denied the claims in an Instagram post on Sunday morning, writing: “As always, there is much speculation and excitement about who is playing at Glastonbury.

We are working on the line-up day and night at the moment, but it’s still changing every day. The story about our confirmed headliners is untrue.

“As always, we love your enthusiasm and guesswork – but accurate news on headliners will be with you sometime in the new year!”

Were she to be confirmed, it would be Madonna’s first time performing at Glastonbury.
