DraftKings (DKNG, $52.63) boosts bid to $22.4 billion for Entain

Sports betting company DraftKings  upped its bid for British gaming giant Entain to around $22.4 billion.

DraftKings’ initial proposal was £25 per share for Entain; but that was quickly rejected, and it raised its bid to £28 per share -- a level that is more than double the $11 billion approach from MGM, Entain's U.S. joint-venture partner, earlier this year.

MGM said it's the "exclusive partner in the U.S. online sports betting and iGaming market", through its BetMGM joint-venture. The company mentioned that "any transaction whereby Entain or its affiliates would own a competing business in the U.S. would require MGM's consent."

"MGM will engage with Entain and DraftKings, as appropriate, to find a solution to the exclusivity arrangements which meets all parties' objectives," the company’s statement mentioned
