According to The Sun, leaked emails from Sony Entertainment reveal that company bosses discussed a plan to sell its music business, which includes a share in more than 250 songs penned by Lennon and McCartney for The Beatles.
At the time, the Thriller hit-maker paid £30million for the lot and later sold half a share to Sony for £64million.
A music source told the publication: “Paul will want to buy the catalogue”.
Meanwhile, the 72-year old said it was,
“ridiculous” that it is now possible to study the Fab Four at university.
“For me it’s ridiculous, and yet very flattering,” responded the music legend.

“We wanted to make our own minds up just by listening to it. So our study was listening. But to be told – as I was years ago now – that The Beatles were in my kid’s history books?
“That was like ‘What?! Unbelievable, man!’ Can you imagine when we were at school, finding yourself in a history book?!”
