Usain Bolt looking forward to seeing future Olympic stars in Rio

Usain Bolt says that he will take a particular interest in the football and basketball events at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

Usain Bolt has claimed that he will be keeping one eye on the up-and-coming football and basketball talent competing at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

The Jamaican sprinter, who has six Olympic gold medals to his name, is expected to take part in the Games next year before retiring.

"I watch a lot of Premier League and NBA games and it will be good to see some of these star players or future star players compete at the Olympics," Bolt told Rio2016.com.

"For me, outside of athletics, it is always basketball and football. I will also watch the swimming and support the Jamaicans in those events."

Bolt, who is considered the world's fastest man, is the current Olympic champion in the 100 metres, 200m and 4x100m relay events.
