Blackstone Group LP and Centerbridge Partners LP plans to offer about 3 billion euros ($3.5 billion) for Banco Santander SA’s Madrid headquarters, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.
The buyout firms have until the beginning of next week to submit their joint bid for the 250-hectare (618-acre) office campus leased to the bank, the person said, asking not to be identified because the matter is private. A deal would extend Blackstone’s buying spree in the surging Spanish property market.
