Apparently the talks of Disney buying Fox assets wasn't focusing on Marvel rights, but rather shows like 'Futurama' for their own streaming service. Although if the talks had gone through, I have no doubt that Disney would've asked that the Marvel rights would be included as well, since said assets were said to be "major ones from Fox" in general.

Though I have heard that supposedly "antitrust laws" would've prevented Disney getting the X-Men rights from Fox to Marvel (for the sake of competition), but I don't know if that would've applied to those movie rights since it's based on characters Marvel owns, and that they sold to Fox as a when in financial troubles in the past (I'm not an expert in copyright and legal stuff so I can't say for sure).
