Read our privacy policy Playtech has been approached by a firm linked to its second largest shareholder about a potential takeover offer, a day after the collapse of its £2.7 billion buyout by an Australian slot machine firm. Playtech told shareholders it has agreed a request from TTB to release it from takeover restrictions which bar a company, or affiliated business, from making a fresh takeover offer within six months of walking away from a deal. This was the latest hitch in the Playtech takeover process, with former Formula One boss Eddie Jordan pulling out of the battle for the firm last month.
