The Daily Telegraph reported that a new image is being considered, along with moves to scrap its market street layout in smaller supermarkets.
Morrisons told just-food that the results of a company review, conducted by Bolland, would be announced in March, but that current rumours were unfounded.
A company spokesperson said: “It is all speculation at the moment. We are going through a review and talking across the board, including all agencies and parties.”
