FanDuel owner Flutter weighs up acquisition of PENN Entertainment

FanDuel parent company Flutter Entertainment is considering a buyout of PENN Entertainment.  The potential deal would reverberate around the online casino landscape in Michigan, giving Flutter a powerful presence in the Wolverine State. Speculation is building that a potential buyout is in the offing, but there has been no concrete news or official confirmation from Flutter that a move is underway.  Previously, Boyd Gaming was said to be considering the same takeover and there were even reports of a joint bid by Flutter and Boyd, supported by the 5% holding of the latter in the former, to acquire PENN and its holdings. Crucially, owning PENN would mean having control of Hollywood Online Casino in Michigan and its destiny.
