£800m sale for Fitness First?

Fitness First has refused to comment on media reports claiming the chain is in discussions regarding the possible £800m sale of the chain.

Reports claim the company had appointed the investment bank UBS to conduct a strategic review, with a sale seen as the most likely outcome.

Fitness First returned to private ownership more than two years ago when private equity company Cinven backed a management buyout.

The company has more than 400 clubs across the world.
