'Looks like a coverup': Ex-Watergate prosecutor says back-and-forth over Bannon testimony is proof Trump is hiding
Fire and Fury portrays a chaotic White House in Trump's first year as president, based on extensive interviews with Trump's former chief strategist Steve Bannon and others.
Hicks is a close aide to the president.
But the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Mueller offered Bannon the option of being interviewed instead and Bannon accepted.
In an interview with WABC-AM radio broadcast on Sunday, Lewandowski said he expects the closed-door meeting to take place either Wednesday or Thursday.
Chicago lawyer Renato Mariotti, a former federal prosecutor, said the most likely reason for a Mueller subpoena of Bannon was that "he thought having an attorney present and giving Bannon a more relaxed setting would not yield the same testimony as if he got him in the grand jury room with no attorney there and a more adversarial style of questioning". A spokesperson for Mueller declined to comment on the agreement, first reported by CNN.

The House committee investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election unexpectedly delayed an interview with White House Communications Director Hope Hicks.
Bannon was sacked by the White House in August and returned to the right-wing news website Breitbart News. His first appearance was voluntary and Bannon's representatives have made no comment.
Russian Federation has denied meddling in the election and Trump has denied there was any collusion between his campaign and Moscow. The person said they did not believe Bannon had hired counsel for that yet.
He was questioned behind closed doors on Tuesday in a 10-hour meeting. House committee members say Lewandowski wouldn't answer questions about anything that occurred after he left the campaign. Schiff said Lewandowski was unprepared and would return to the panel another time.
The White House and an attorney for Hicks did not respond to request for comment. The House Intelligence Committee is conducting one of three congressional investigations of the Russian Federation issue, separate from Mueller's probe.
