MADRID, July 7 (Reuters) - Telefonica (TEF.MC) has sold a 54% stake in its fibre optic network in Peru to U.S. private equity fund KKR (KKR.N) and 10% to Entel's (ENTEL.SN) local business, the Spanish telecoms group said on Friday, adding that it will retain the remaining 36%. In many markets, the company has separated the infrastructure into different units to maximise the value of its disposed assets. The Spanish company did not disclose the value of the transaction but said the deal would cut its debt by 200 million euros ($217.8 million). The transaction valued 100% of the unit at about 550 million euros, including debt, according to a banking source close to the deal. The new company, Pangeaco, will combine the existing fibre optic network in Peru from Telefonica and Entel, KKR firm said in a separate statement.
