New Portsmouth owner Sulaiman Al Fahim sees Diego Maradona as a potential coach of their Academy.
Al Fahim told arabianbusiness.com: "I want to see a very organised and successful development of both the club and the team, and I don't think rushing out and buying very expensive players is the way forward.
"Some emails have been sent by his lawyer which have been printed, but those are the ideas of his people, not our people. We have our own plans and ideas which we will be moving forward with.
"I think somebody like Maradona can be great for developing the youth academy and acting as an ambassador for a club, helping to grow it. But we are not in any talks."
