Jade Thirlwall is reportedly on the verge of agreeing a solo deal with RCA Records.
The Little Mix singer is rumoured to have been tentatively working on solo material in recent months, including a new track with DJ Jax Jones.
According to The Sun, Thirlwall will now commit herself to releasing such music through RCA - a deal which could lead to a collaboration with stablemate Lizzo.
"Jade has had talks with several different labels but she knows the team at RCA personally and is confident they understand what she wants for the next phase of her career," a source told the newspaper.
"She is in advanced negotiations and now it's just a case of crossing the t's and dotting the i's. They have already got to work on figuring out what her moves will be as a solo artist.
"She is very clear about what she wants and is eager to find a really unique sound. Jade has a load of tracks which she has recorded on her own but she won't put anything out which she isn't completely happy with.
"She shares a manager with Lizzo and there have been talks about trying to get them in the studio together because they are both great songwriters with a similar viewpoint. They could make something really empowering together."
Little Mix have previously announced plans to go on an indefinite hiatus after their upcoming spring tour.
