Wait, what? Niall Horan is releasing his first solo song… TODAY?!

When One Direction split, Niall Horan went down a road we didn't expect.

We all knew he had a keen interest in golf, but the Mullingar man went on to open a golf management company, Modest!, and it's been doing pretty well so far.

But then rumours started to spark that he was going to go down to solo musician route… and it looks like his first song is coming out… today?!

In a now-deleted tweet, Radio Disney wrote: "Surprise! Listen to Radio Disney RIGHT NOW to hear @NiallOfficial's brand new song #ThisTown! And stay tuned to hear from Niall!"

Fans have also pointed out that the singer now has a new, verified Spotify page, which again suggests he's gearing up for a debut solo album.

Radio Disney tweeted this and then deleted it. Hmmmm, in all seriousness it seems solo Niall is rising. Be prepared.

It's unclear whether the tweet was intentional or not, and nobody has confirmed if the tune will indeed be released today.

Keep your eyes PEELED.
