Bolt: 'I could play for United'

Triple Olympic gold medalist Usain Bolt has claimed that he could switch sports and play football for Manchester United.

The Jamaican sprinter, who made Olympic history when he defended both his 100m and 200m titles at London 2012, has previously expressed his interest in a surprise move to the Red Devils.

Bolt told the Jonathan Ross Show: "That's definitely one thing I want to try. I think I'll be good. I can do that. I've got the skills.

"I'll be there, if the money's right. No problem."

Bolt is also a talented cricketer and has revealed that he is in talks over featuring in Australia's Twenty20 'Big Bash' competition.
