Industry insiders speculate on rumours of a bid from Rank Group for the land-based casino estate of Stanley Leisure, which has also been linked with a potential merger with London Clubs International.

Analysts suggested that the confirmation from the board of London Clubs that it has received an approach to sell Les Ambassadeurs could pave the way for a merger between LCI and Stanley Leisure.

Media reports indicated in Putera Sampoerna, an Indonesian tobacco tycoon, as the suitor who made a £115m offer for the upmarket Mayfair casino owned by London Clubs.
