T-Mobile US Inc. is working with Goldman Sachs Group Inc. to help sell assets as it seeks regulatory approval of its $26.5 billion merger with Sprint Corp., according to people familiar with the matter.

Tapping Goldman Sachs shows that the companies are moving ahead with a sale of Sprint’s Boost prepaid brand, said the people, who asked to not be identified because the process is private. They agreed to sell Boost to win clearance from the Federal Communications Commission and are also considering offloading airwaves to appease the Justice Department.
