'I did it for the people'- Usain Bolt on how fans affection influenced his decision to postpone retirement by one year
Decision to hang up spikes after becoming the first man to win three consecutive 100m and 200m Olympic gold medals backfired
The young coach arrives at Old Trafford with a sterling reputation built on his successful stint at Sporting Lisbon where he secured two league titles.
“I’m really excited! The fact that he (Ruben Amorim) beat Pep twice is wonderful,” Bolt said in an interview with Sky Sports.
“I heard his first interview, and it seems like he is going to bring identity to the club, and that’s what we were missing—the identity. So, I’m excited to see if the players can work with him and stand behind him and do a great job.”
While Bolt’s enthusiasm is palpable, some football fans were quick to correct his statement, noting that Amorim has managed just one victory against Pep Guardiola, Manchester City’s revered manager.

‘I beat Noah but didn’t accomplish...’ - Why Kenny Bednarek was not content with just beating big-talking Noah Lyles at Olympic 200m final
Olympics 200m silver medalist Kenny Bednarek has shared how his mother's presence helped him heal from missing Olympics gold to Letsile Tebogo despite defeating serial rival Noah Lyles.
This win came during a recent UEFA Champions League clash where Sporting triumphed 4-1 at the Jose Alvalade Stadium.
Despite the clarification, Bolt’s confidence in Amorim remains unshaken, as he focuses on the broader potential impact the coach could have on Manchester United.
The eight-time Olympic gold medalist also took the opportunity to reflect on Manchester United’s overall performance last season.
The Red Devils had an underwhelming Premier League campaign, finishing in eighth place.
However, they managed to secure a morale-boosting FA Cup victory, defeating cross-town rivals Manchester City 2-1 in the final.
Bolt drew comparisons between United’s performance and Arsenal’s season, where the Gunners finished second in the Premier League but failed to win any major trophies apart from the Community Shield.
Using his track and field background to illustrate his point, Bolt offered a witty analogy.
“It’s like I’m running on a circuit and doing well and then I get to the Championship and win no medals,” he said, speaking to talkSPORT.
“Everybody always asks me who I’d rather win the Premier League out of Arsenal and Man City – I’m like, ‘Man City, easy.’”

The sprinter’s candid remarks highlight his frustrations with Manchester United’s recent struggles and his hopes for Amorim’s tenure to usher in a new era of success.
Bolt’s emphasis on the importance of “identity” resonates with many United fans who feel the club has lost its way since the departure of legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Amorim’s appointment also underscores Manchester United’s commitment to rejuvenating their approach, relying on fresh, innovative tactics to compete with the likes of Guardiola’s City and Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool
