Usain Bolt takes another shot at professional soccer
Now that his career as the fastest man in the world has ended, Usain Bolt is making another run at becoming a professional soccer player.
“It has been my dream to play professional football, and I know it will involve a lot of hard work,” Bolt said in a statement, adding: “I always say that ‘anything is possible, don’t think limits’ and I look forward to the challenge.”
Eight golds — and a spate of world records — made him the greatest sprinter in history when he retired soon after the 2017 world championships.
