Vodafone has said talks regarding the sale of its 45% stake in Verizon Communications are "advanced" and it has put a value on the stake.


It has confirmed it is discussing selling the stake to Verizon Communications for $130bn (£84bn).


The company said last week that the talks were taking place and there have been reports that a sale could be confirmed as soon as Monday.


Vodafone warned there was no certainty an agreement would be reached.


In a brief statement in response to what it called media speculation, Vodafone said: "Vodafone confirms that it is in advanced discussions with Verizon Communications Inc regarding the disposal of Vodafone's US group whose principal asset is its 45% interest in Verizon Wireless for $130bn."


"The consideration would substantially comprise a mixture of Verizon common stock and cash."
