Jamaican sprint great Usain Bolt has signaled that his hopes of a professional soccer career are over, saying:
Bolt has had several stints in training and on trial at clubs around the world.
Most notably, he scored twice in a friendly match for Central Coast Mariners but was unable to agree a contract with the Australian club.
“I don’t want to say it wasn’t dealt with properly, but I think we went about it, not the way we should and you learn your lesson, you live and you learn,” he said.
“It was a good experience. I really enjoyed just being in a team and it was different from track and field and it was fun while it lasted.”
The 32-year-old, who won multiple Olympic sprint gold medals in Beijing, London and Rio, said his focus now was on his business endeavours.
He said: “I’m just doing many different things … the sports life is over, so I’m now moving into different businesses, I have a lot of things in the pipeline, so as I say, I’m just dabbling in everything and trying to be a business man now.”
Usain can do whatever he wants at this point.
