DAZN, formerly known as Perform Group, has become one of the UK’s most valuable technology start-ups and is a darling of London’s technology sector.
The company is closing in on a separate sale of its Perform Content division, which includes the Opta sports statistics arm and betting businesses.
Sources said that deal is likely to be a precursor to a potential London listing later this year or next which would raise new cash for growth.
They said the plans have been discussed internally and were still at an early stage. Other options include a possible flotation in the US, where DAZN has been growing its boxing coverage. A sale to a major technology company would also be considered if a lucrative offer came in
