Flutter Entertainment, which obtained Oddschecker in its $11bn acquisition of The Stars Group (TSG) last year, is said to be reviewing the options of selling Oddschecker to focus on its core betting and gaming business, as reported by Sky News.
The company has hired investment bank Moelis & Co to advise on the sale of Oddschecker, a betting odds comparison site. Citing Sky's "City sources” could sell for about GBP 150 million.
The move comes as Flutter also prepares for a partial New York float of US-arm FanDuel which has led to a dispute with Rupert Murdoch's Fox Corp over the price of Fox's option to buy FanDuel shares.
