Twitter would be close to
accepting
Elon Musk
's offer
.
Tesla's CEO had offered $ 54.20 per share in cash, which Musk said was the "
best and most definitive
" price.
The social network could announce the $ 43 billion deal in the next few hours, when the board meets to present the deal to shareholders.
However, sources told Reuters, it is always possible that the operation will not go through at the last minute.
Elon Musk aims to acquire the
entire
share package of Twitter to “
delist
” it, that is to remove it from the stock market.
According to the Tesla boss, removing social media from market dynamics would guarantee users
freedom of expression
