Portsmouth have confirmed they have held talks with Russian consortium Convers Sport Initiative (CSI), who are interested in buying the club.
CSI, who are involved with Ferrari Russia and the Spartak Moscow ice hockey team, were behind a failed bid for Bournemouth last summer.
CSI co-owner Chris Akers told The Portsmouth News: "We've held talks with several clubs, including Portsmouth FC.
"However we cannot comment any further on the status of these negotiations."
