Landlord Capital & Counties on Friday said it is in “advanced discussions” to sell the historic Olympia exhibition centre to German investors, for a price believed to be close to £300 million.

The FTSE 250 property firm, which owns swathes of Covent Garden and Earl’s Court, said it was close to selling its exhibition business, which includes Olympia London and “certain related property assets”.
