LONDON, Jan 30 (Reuters) - British online fashion retailer
ASOS is on the verge of a deal to buy Topshop and Miss
Selfridge from the administrators of British tycoon Philip
Green's Arcadia Group for almost 300 million pounds ($411

corporate casualty of the COVID-19 pandemic.
ASOS and the administrators of Arcadia both declined to
comment.
Meanwhile, British online fashion retailer Boohoo
said on Friday it has entered exclusive talks with the
administrators of Philip Green's collapsed Arcadia group over
the purchase of the Dorothy Perkins, Wallis and Burton brands.
