According to website El Confidencial, over the past summer, Vodafone rejected a non-binding €6.0bn offer from MasMovil arguing that it undervalued the assets and asked instead for €8.0bn.
In remarks to Reuters, a spokesman for Vodafone said there was "no truth whatsoever" to the report that talks were talking place or that the company had asked for any specific figure.
