Noel quits London?
The former Oasis leader, who is currently said to be working on a debut solo project, says the UK capital has "lost its spark".
After around 15 years living away from the city, the rock icon looks set to return to his roots.
"I'm leaving London to go back up north, to Manchester", he explained.
"I've been advised to do a Rod Stewart, as in a tax exile, but I don't want to do it. But London has lost its spark", said Noel.
