MDC's Samuel Sipepa Nkomo has said talks to merge the Professor Welshman Ncube-led MDC and the Renewal Team led by Tendai Biti are now at an advanced stage.
Nkomo said there is no single party in Zimbabwe that can defeat Zanu-PF on its own.
He said MDC-T lost in last year's elections mainly because of the imposition of candidates.
"This party is God-appointed and we'll not do anything against the will of God," said Nkomo.
MDC spokesperson Nhlanhla Dube said they were having "informal talks" with the Renewal Team on a possible merger.
