Usain Bolt to play soccer after he retires from track and field?

Filed under: Usain Bolt

The 24-year-old Bolt told BBC Radio on Sunday that “I always watch those guys and I think I could be a professional footballer. I’ll try that — maybe I could get into a good side or even an average side.”

Usain says he has about four years left in track and field.. He is 24 now, and will be 27 after the 2012 Olympics in London… Chances are he wont be still trying to shatter records when he is 30+, so the Olympics in Brazil in 2016 seem like a reach. Not that trying to be a footballer isn’t but at  6′ 5″, 207 lbs and faster than a mofo, I’m sure there will be a place for him somewhere.
