Italy's Serie A to weigh private equity bids amid virus crisis - sources

MILAN (Reuters) - Italy's top-flight soccer clubs have mandated Serie A to weigh private equity bids for its broadcast rights business as they look at ways to weather the financial storm triggered by the new coronavirus crisis, two sources close to the matter said.

The clubs' top executives met on Tuesday after Serie A had received a series of bids from private equity investors interested in buying a stake in a new company holding the league's broadcast rights.
