Bolt to train with A-League side Central Coast Mariners
Print Edition
Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt will train with Australia’s Central Coast Mariners as he continues his quest to become a professional soccer player, the A-League team said yesterday.
Bolt won eight Olympic golds and since retiring has trained with Germany’s Borussia Dortmund, South Africa’s Mamelodi Sundowns and Norway’s Stromsgodset. He will link up with the Australian side later this month. “I am very excited about coming to Australia and would like to thank the owner and management of the Central Coast Mariners for giving me this opportunity,” the 31-year-old Jamaican said. “It has been my dream to play professional football and I know it will involve a lot of hard work and training to get to the level required to play and make an impact in the A-League.” Mariners said the deal did not guarantee a professional playing contract with them.
