Portsmouth chairman Milan Mandaric has denied trying to buy Leicester - but would not rule out a future bid for the Coca-Cola Championship club.Reports on Tuesday indicated Mandaric was keen to land a controlling stake in the Foxes after suggesting he would not remain at Pompey in the long term. Mandaric holds the post of non-executive chairman at Fratton Park after after selling the club to Alexandre Gaydamak last month."There is no truth in the story at this time. Of course I respect Leicester City Football Club and their position, but I am still chairman of Portsmouth and, while I am chairman, you have got to be faithful to them," Mandaric told the Leicester Mercury.
