Olympic champion Usain Bolt has confirmed he plans on handing Manchester United a late-season boost by giving winger Cristiano Ronaldo some one-on-one sprint training.
Bolt, who broke the 100 and 200metres world records on his way to three gold medals in Beijing last year, is a keen fan of the Red Devils and it was reported that Portuguese winger Ronaldo had sent the Jamaican a signed shirt and requested a training session.
Bolt is coming to Manchester to compete in a one-off 150metre road race on May 17 and plans to attend United's penultimate league game of the season - a home clash with rivals Arsenal.
The 22-year-old is set to be paraded at half time in Old Trafford fans and also hopes to attend a training session before the match to link up with Ronaldo.
