CVC former F1 owners are interested.
Times go into detail more but it's paywall

Bye bye the national team.
When will the clubs learn that the club game won't grow until the National team starts getting more success in the world cups.
But looking at this
Sports' domestic TV rights:
Premiership Rugby (BT Sport) - £45 million per year
Premier League football (Sky, BT Sport, Amazon) - £1.5 billion per year
English cricket including internationals (Sky, BBC) - £220 million per year
Super League rugby league (Sky) - £40 million per year
NFL American football US TV rights - £5.5billion per year
Prem Rugby could get a lot more money from it's TV deals which is what CVC would do.
