"Harry is a total gentleman, and we know our good friend Jeffrey Azoff will look after him," they added.

Azoff of CAA will be Styles' new manager, Christian Today said. He and the just turned 22-year-old singer was said to already be discussing some investment in a new Hollywood management company. Also, sometime this year, Style's will be launched by his new management team as a solo superstar.

Despite this news coming out, Styles has not given any comment yet. One Direction also has not shown any hints of finally retiring. All they announced was about them taking a break for a few months.

Moreover, it will be remembered that the British boy band denied reports about them splitting. What they announced was that their hiatus status will not change as there are no other plans announced yet aside from that.

As for preparations on his solo career, there have been stories about Styles being busy for months now in writing and recording potential songs for his debut solo album. Close friend Charlie Puth shared that Styles' music is very much influenced by Paul McCartney as seen obvious by how he has adopted The Beatles' singer's vocal tricks and chord changes.
