According to the daily, Merrill Lynch's head for Italy, Maurizio Tamagnini, met over the weekend with Wind's financial director Luigi Gubitosi to discuss Tiscali.
Merrill Lynch is already working for BT, which is interested in Tiscali's UK business, it said. If a deal is struck, Wind could take over Tiscali's Italian business, it added.
