Niall’s SOLO contract: Simon Cowell reveals the BIG new deal

First Harry signed a solo recording deal, and then Liam sent fans into a frenzy when he revealed he was going out on his own as well.

But now, it's Niall Horan's turn.

Simon Cowell has revealed that Niall is set to announce his solo recording deal very soon, and he's teaming up with the major music mogule for it.

"Niall is the most loyal. We are expecting to announce something soon with him," the X Factor judge told People.

“I think they’re all going to do great. I worked with these guys for six years, so I always hoped they would all stay within what I call the Sony family, but I think only one won’t,” Simon added.

He's obviously referring to Liam here, who just signed with Capitol Records last week, and then went on to delete all trace of One Direction from his Twitter account.
