MADRID (Reuters) - A spokeswoman for Spain's Abertis (MC:ABE) said on Wednesday that the company has not received an offer for its stake in Cellnex (MC:CLNX) following a report that American Towers (N:AMT) may be interested.
Bloomberg reported on Tuesday that American Towers is exploring a bid for the Spanish telecommunications tower operator to expand in Europe, though the offer depends on a successful merger of Abertis and Italy's Atlantia (MI:ATL).
Cellnex said its management has had no contact with American Towers.
At 0745 GMT, Cellnex was up 6.53 percent, leading gains on the Ibex (IBEX), down 0.09 percent.
