Usain Bolt Trains With South African Club, Mamelodi Sundowns (Photos)

Retired Jamaican athletic superstar, Usain Bolt, teamed up with South African side Mamelodi Sundowns at training on Monday morning and showed a glimpse of what he can do on a soccer pitch. 

The eight-time Olympic gold medalist is visiting the country as part of an Athletics South Africa development scheme.

Usain Bolt arrival was announced by the 2016 African championson their Twitter account and also posted a video of the Jamaican in training with the squad. They wrote:

 Look who decided to pop into Chloorkop for a session. The worlds fastest man, meet Africa’s kings of style! @usainbolt #SchoolOfSpeed #Sundowns

In the meantime, everyone at Mamelodi Sundowns is getting a photo opportunity with Usain Bolt, even Pitso Mosimane. It's not often you meet an all-time living legend.

Usain Bolt is famously known as a Manchester United fan and has often spoken of his desire to play football. 

The current manager of Mamelodi Sundows, Pitso Mosimane, said;

"Good thing is he's a free agent! And he can play in a few positions".

Bolt admits the transition from athletics to football is tough, but thanked the club for the opportunity to train with the squad.

"It was a good game, a fun day and I really enjoyed it. I told the coach when I get back to Jamaica I need more training because I'm unfit. I told my friends we need to plan a trip to South Africa it's a beautiful country, I love the vibe here it's similar to Jamaica in that sense!" he said.
