ROME, Feb 7 (Reuters) - French telecoms operator Iliad is looking at a potential consolidation deal with Italy's former phone monopolist Telecom Italia (TIM) TLIT.MI, Italian newspapers Corriere della Sera and La Stampa reported on Friday.
La Stampa said Iliad has given a mandate to Boston Consulting Group to study a possible deal, while Corriere said Iliad, assisted by Lazard, had recent talks with the Italian economy ministry, which holds just under 10% of the phone operator.
Iliad was not immediately available for comment.
Corriere added CVC was looking at TIM's services for businesses unit, with the idea of merging it with ICT group Maticmind, which the private equity group controls and in which Italian state lender Cassa Depositi e Prestiti has a stake.
