888 - bwin.party Deal: GVC Wants Back in the Game, Prepares Counter Offer

The bidding war to take control of the bwin.party Group may not be over quite yet as GVC Holdings is reportedly evaluating the possibility of making a counteroffer.

According to Bloomberg and Reuters the company is currently "considering its options," even if — at least for the time being — there is "no certainty an offer would be made."

The new offer would follow the £906.5m bid announced earlier this month after GVC Holdings formed a joint venture with Canada-listed Amaya to take control of the bwin.
