CNN reported Trump was captured on audio in 2021 admitting he took a classified document.
Federal prosecutors investigating Trump's handling of documents have the recording, CNN said.
The recording included Trump saying he was not sure he was able to declassify records after leaving the presidency, two sources said.
The sources said Jack Smith, the special counsel leading the Justice Department's investigations into Trump, has focused on the summer 2021 meeting in which the audio recording was taken.
Legal experts respond to reports of the audio recording"This is absolutely blockbuster evidence," Renato Mariotti, a former federal prosecutor, wrote on Twitter of the reported audio.
