Toys R Us is reportedly making preparations to liquidate all of its stores in the United States.

Sources told Bloomberg that the situation is still fluid but a shutdown of the USA division has become increasingly likely.

Toys "R" Us operated 900 stores across the USA and New York City's flagship store in Manhattan closed two years ago.

However, the chain also announced plans to shutter more than 180 stores this year, or roughly 20% of its USA operations.

The company secured a $3 billion loan to help keep stores open during the turnaround but poor results during the holidays cast doubts about the chain's viability.
