Madonna's manager says she'll head into the studio next month to work on a new album.

Madonna's manager and Maverick label honcho Guy Oseary says that the Material Girl is sampling new music and preparing to work on a new album.

Responding to a seemingly flip question from a fan on twitter about Mads' plans, he tweeted, 'madonna is listening to potential tracks and ideas for the new album.. she is eager to get started... this will happen soon..'

He then specified, 'Madonna goes into the recording studio next month to begin work on new album...'

Oseary also alluded to inevitable tour following the album. He was the man behind her obscenely successful 2006 'Confessions' and 2008 'Sticky & Sweet' tours.

He also tweeted about negotiations with Warner Bros regarding Madonna's older material and DVDs since she's now signed a massive 360 deal with Live Nation.
