JAMAICAN sprint King Usain Bolt is busy preparing for the new season.
But the famed Manchester United fan videoed himself in the gym wearing a Borussia Dortmund kit.
Bolt’s loyalties – a man who called into MUTV to discuss the win over Middlesbrough a couple of weeks ago – can’t have switched?
Sadly not, the more simple explanation lands at the door of Bolt’s sponsors: Puma.
Dortmund are, of course, another company in the German brand’s stable.
Bolt has one of the richest sponsorship deals in sport – though he pales in comparison to sponsorship deals that Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and LeBron James command – with Puma paying him around $10million a year.
