Hopes of Fleetwood Mac headlining Glastonbury 2015 have been reignited once again, with singer Stevie Nicks saying that plans are 'being discussed' - but at least they'll be back in London in May. 

The band were tipped to top the bill last year, but tour plans were pulled when bassist John McVie fell ill with cancer.

Now, with John on the mend and Christine McVie back on board, the classic Rumours line-up of the Mac are back on the road and working on new material - but could Glasto 2015 be on the cards? It seems likely, with the band being touring the UK at that time of year - according to Nicks. 

"Chris is excited to come back to London. It'll be soon, probably May," Nicks told Uncut Magazine, adding: "Glastonbury? You never know. You have to weave festivals in. It's being discussed." 

Speaking to Gigwise last year, Mick Fleetwood said: "We were asked to do some lovely festivals this year and it didn't work out. Once you do the festivals then you can't really do a tour of the other towns. We were asked to do Glastonbury this year and hopefully they'll ask us again."

When asked about the possibility of playing Glastonbury 2014, Fleetwood replied: "I don't know - they've probably got fed up of asking us!"

However, when asked about Glastonbury earlier this year, Christine McVie replied: "If Michael Eavis provides the wellies I'll be there."

Meanwhile, the bookies' favourites to headline Glastonbury 2015 have been named as Depeche Mode, while AC/DC and Prince are also rumoured. We have a year-long wait until we find out for sure. 

Festival organiser Michael Eavis has confirmed that three headliners are already booked. 

Glasto have announced that registered users will be able to buy coach and ticket packages from 7pm on Wednesday 1 October, while standard tickets are available from Sunday 5 October at 9am. For tickets and more details, visit here
