Usain Bolt has again stated his desire to play for Manchester United, and Red Devils defender Rio Ferdinand has volunteered to make it happen.
Asked about the prospect, Bolt, 25, said: "People think I am joking. But if Alex Ferguson called me up and said, 'OK let's do this, come and have a trial', it would be impossible for me to say No.
"I would not take up the challenge if I didn't think I was good enough. I am a very accomplished player and know I could make a difference."
