This news of The Rolling Stones arrives as the legendary rockers are thinking about their future career options because their record deal with the EMI label is due to end next month.
The Rolling Stones, who have been with EMI for the last 16 years, will be able to have talks and potentially sign to other labels when their contract with EMI expires.
However, it is reported that an EMI spokesman disputed this and claimed: "The Rolling Stones have not signed to Universal and they have not left EMI."
But for their next move, a spokesman on behalf of The Rolling Stones said: "The band are looking forward to working with Universal Music and are excited about this new venture."
