LONDON, April 29 (Reuters) - Britain's BT Group said
on Thursday it was in talks to sell a stake in its sports
business, confirming a Telegraph report saying companies such as
Amazon.com Inc, Walt Disney Co and sport streaming company DAZN
had shown interest.
"Further to media reports, BT can confirm that early
discussions are being held with a number of select strategic
partners, to explore ways to generate investment, strengthen our
sports business, and help take it to the next stage in its
growth," BT said.
"The discussions are confidential and may or may not lead to
an outcome."
