Diesel owner Renzo Rosso is thought to be in talks with Italian fashion house Marni to
acquire a key stake.Marni, who earlier this year collaborated with H&M to produce a sell-out collection, revealed in October that he and his wife, creative director Consuelo, were seeking a financial partner to aid their growth and retail expansion.
Rosso's holding company Only The Brave also owns Viktor & Rolf, Maison Martin Margiela and his own brand Diesel.
Last July, it was speculated Renzo Rosso might be interested in a deal, however according to reports the Castiglioni family were reluctant to give up a majority ownership and control of the brand.
