London--Britain's Diageo Plc is close to selling fast-food chain Burger King to a management-led team backed by Texas Pacific Group for about $2.3 billion in a deal that could be announced this month. At least three rival bidding groups have reached the final stages of the auction for the world's No. 2 hamburger chain, but U.S. private equity group Texas Pacific, which has the support of Burger King chairman John Dasburg, is seen ahead of the other two, sources say. -Reuters
