So Italian hacks at the Corriere della Sera are reporting that US investment firm Castlelake is looking to team up with the Mediterranean Shipping Company to mount a joint bid for FTSE 250-listed easyJet.
Castlelake has announced it owns 2.14pc of easyJet.
I see American investment firm Castlelake has now confirmed little old Betaville's UNCOOKED Alert from earlier today.
