Usain Bolt is the fastest man on the planet and one of the greatest Olympians of all-time but he’s always harboured the fantasy to become a professional footballer.
While the Jamaican has been invited to train with Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund following his retirement from the track, an opportunity to turn out for a professional football club is not yet on the horizon.
However, Bolt is set to fulfill his fantasy at least in the virtual world with as he will be available to Pro Evolution Soccer gamers after Konami revealed the PES 2018 pre-orders will include the sprinter as a bonus in the MyClub mode.
Bolt is a big Manchester United fan and has repeatedly voiced his ambition to play for the Red Devils one day and in an interview with Sky Sports in December, he suggested that training with Dortmund could be his first step on his journey to Old Trafford.
“The boss of Puma knows Dortmund and he made the call. They said they didn’t mind and they’d be excited to have me train with them.
“I’m going to do that after the season and see what happens. It’d be something big for me – if I could get in the Manchester United jersey that’d be massive for me.”
The game is set to be released in September this year.
