Singer Harry Styles has reportedly got an offer to write a song with former Take That band member Gary Barlow.

Sources reveal that Styles met Barlow in Soho House for a drink at the weekend to discuss his development as a songwriter. And Barlow gave him a few handy tips.

"Gary has been over in New York working on music for a Broadway musical version of Finding Neverland. He heard Harry was in town and arranged to meet up," thesun.co.uk quoted a source as saying.

"They had a great afternoon talking about Gary's life in Take That (band) as a young bloke and then more recently. Harry is an attentive guy and really listens. He likes keeping older company and soaks up as much advice as he can get," he added.

In addition to advice, Barlow asked him to write with him some day.

"Gary talked him through his songwriting techniques and offered to write with him whenever they get the chance," said the source.
