The legendary Usain Bolt is a huge follower of soccer. He had earlier trained with the Dortmund team but failed to break into the first team. Irrespective of that, Dortmund posted a tweet for the fastest man alive. They showed him the respect he deserved with a complimentary tweet from their official account.
“The greatest of all time @usainbolt.”
While everyone thought he was joking about starting a soccer career, Bolt achieved his dreams. He played in Australia for some time with the Central Coast Mariners. But, it never kick-started to be the fairy tale ending everyone thought to be. He also had a stint with Dortmund as he trained with their players. A motivated Bolt spoke about his soccer dreams.
“Everyone feels like I?m just kidding around ? [that] I?m joking. But I?m serious. I?m actually going back to Dortmund in a couple of weeks to work with them for three more weeks just to assess myself at a better level – to see what level I?m at or what I need to do, or if I can,” said Bolt.

“It’s all about procedure and movement, but the most important thing is that he had fun. I think he is talented, but when he wants to play at a higher level, he clearly has a lot of work to do,” said Bolt.
If he had started training earlier to be a soccer player, one may never know what happens. With his pace, Bolt could have been one of the greatest players in the history of soccer.
