He's just announced his debut solo single (literally, this morning, we wrote about it right here) but Zayn is already discussing the possibility of reuniting with his former One Direction bandmates.

When asked by The Sunday Times if he might ever consider rejoining the group in the future Zayn replied: "Who knows?

"I don't know. If the time was right and that was the thing to do, then I would make that decision when it came around.”

The 23-year-old also revealed that he is hoping to return to education after leaving school halfway through sixth form when One Direction formed.

He said: "You know what, to educate yourself isn't that hard these days. You can do it at home.

“You can go to lectures - just sit there, which hopefully, at some point, I can do - like, just sit and listen to a lecture.”

He added that revisiting his studies would be "something that is only, solely for me, you know what I mean? And when my kids ask me, in the future, and I try to tell them to go to school, they can't turn around and say to me, 'F--- off, Dad, you were in a band!'

"I can turn around and say, 'Excuse me, I went back to school and got my degree. So you definitely have to do your schoolwork!”
