KKR is in advanced talks to buy a stake in Global Sport Group, valuing the deal at about €2.75 billion (£2.4 billion).
GSG owns stakes in Six Nations Rugby, women's tennis, and major football leagues in France and Spain.
The deal would allow CVC to remain invested in its sports portfolio for longer and may enable a future IPO or minority stake sale.
KKR declined to comment on the potential transaction, while CVC could not be reached for comment, according to Sky News.
Global Sport Group's strategy includes expanding its portfolio with new investments in elite sports assets.
CVC previously expanded its sports footprint after acquiring Equine Network, a large US equestrian league.
The investment aims to maximise commercial potential through media and sponsorship rights deals.
The deal would enable CVC to pursue longer-term ownership of premium sports assets.
The relationship between KKR and GSG signals growing private capital interest in elite sports.

The RAC is owned by CVC Capital Partners, Silver Lake Partners and Singapore's GIC, and has around 15 million members.

The RAC is a long-standing British breakdown service with strong brand recognition and a large membership base.
The AA and other groups have also attracted banker involvement as potential exits are explored.
The RAC's arrangement could become one of the London market's largest listings in 2026.
RAC's ownership includes a mix of private equity and a state-backed investor from Singapore.
The planned listing follows Sky News reporting on last summer about the exit strategy.
The RAC employs thousands and has a broad member base, signaling scale for a potential flotation.
