The 1975 frontman took to Twitter on Thursday (03.01.19) to put it out in the world that he'd like to get into the studio with the One Direction star and his bandmate George Daniel to work on Harry's follow-up to his 2017 debut self-titled album, but admitted it could prove difficult as his number didn't work for him.
He wrote: "Hey @Harry_Styles me and George really wanna produce your next album hmu if you wanna it's cool if not tho I know you're like super busy etc love!!!!! (sic)"
Moments later, he added: "I need @Harry_Styles new number I'm defo blocked (sic)"
The 'Chocolate' hitmaker wanting to collaborate with Harry, 24, may come as a surprise to their fans.
Matty previously asked One Direction to alter their song 'Change Your Ticket' from 2014's 'Four' LP because he felt the "vibe" was a "complete lift" of The 1975 song 'Girls'.
He said: "Listen guys, fill your boots, the song doesn't sound that much like 'Girls'. But the guitar and the whole vibe of it is a complete lift. So take the guitars off, and we're good."
The 29-year-old singer also revealed he was asked to pen a song for the same 1D album, but claimed the group - which at the time was also comprised of Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and former member Zayn Malik - "didn't seem that interested".
Speaking in 2016, he said: "They didn't seem to be actually that interested; they just wanted to play me this song that they said was really, really inspired by us."
The 'Somebody Else' singer also slammed their "artistic credibility" in the same interview.
He said: "Oh, well ... they're four guys who queued up outside an arena to sing in front of Simon Cowell. Do they really have any artistic credibility? That sounds like a mean thing to say, but it's a good question. Like, do they?"
