Usain Bolt Joins Football
Usain Bolt is set to join Borussia Dortmund on Friday for his first ever football training session. He has likened his natural talent for running to that of Barcelona forward Lionel Messi for football. The 31 year-old who is the current 100-metre world-record holder had retired from athletics in August 2017 having won eight Olympic gold medals and been crowned world champion 11 times.
As quoted from Omnisport, "Messi is very talented, From what I've learned and listened to over the years, Cristiano had to work to get where he is. I was born with speed and had a lot of talent [like Messi]."
Bolt has expressed his interest to play football professionally and is a big fan of Manchester United. He will get his chance for a big break when he impresses the coaches at Borussia Dortmund and hopefully be able to play for his beloved Manchester United.

this is a nice post. he might not be a footballer but can play if he has the passion for it so to the best of my view he can play if he trains hard and work on his foot work
thanks
Agreed. Hardwork and perserverance can move mountains.
If he really joins a team, man, he can just zoom past anyone. LOL
