Usain Bolt has evealed that his goal after athletics is to become a professional footballer and insisted: I’m good enough to play for Manchester United.

“I want to try soccer after I retire because I’ve watched football for years and I think I could be a good contender,” said the 24-year-old, who started supporting United after watching them on television as a child in Jamaica.

“I am really looking forward to it. I definitely think I am good enough to play for Manchester United because I am quick and have some skills. I have to refine it a little bit but I should be good enough.”
