Bolt joins United celebrations

Manchester - Usain Bolt looked just like any other giddy Manchester United fan as the club captured the English title by drawing 0-0 with Arsenal.

Watching from the Old Trafford directors' box on Saturday, the triple Olympic champion filmed the celebrations on the pitch and turned the video camera on himself to preserve the memory of witnessing United's 18th title triumph.

Bolt had been invited to the match ahead of a 150m street race in Manchester on Sunday.

Clad in a United scarf, the Jamaican danced the same jig that followed his victories at the Beijing Games and spoke excitedly into the lens.

On Friday, the world's fastest man dropped in on a United training session.

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
