Sprint legend Usain Bolt will undergo trial with German side Borussia Dortmund in a bid to earn a professional contract at Manchester United.
According to reports, the multiple Olympic gold medalist, will start trial with the side once his injury is gone.
He retired after damaging his hamstring in his last race at the World Championships in London last year.
“The injury is now fine and I’m back fully fit,” Bolt, the 100 metres world-record holder, told the Express.
“In March we’re going to do trials with Dortmund and that will determine what I do with that career, which way it goes. If they say I’m good, and that I need a bit of training, I’ll do it.
“It makes me nervous. I don’t get nervous but this is different, this is football now. It’ll take time to adjust but once I play a few times I’ll get used to it. It was the same when I started track and field.
“I was nervous for a while until I started getting used to the crowd, people and everyone around and it falls into place.
“One of my biggest dreams is to sign for Manchester United. If Dortmund say I’m good enough, I’ll crack on and train hard. I’ve spoken to Alex Ferguson and I told him he needs to put in a good word. He told me if I get fit and ready, he will see what he can do.”
