Usain Bolt has made his feelings clear on returning to track amid claims he may lose world record after rule change

Usain Bolt has spoken out about returning to the track amid reports that a huge rule change could cause him to lose his 100m world record.

Having set the long-standing world record for the 100m sprint back in 2009 with a time of 9.58 seconds, there can be no doubt that Olympic legend Bolt is the fastest man to ever live.

However, recent reports have suggested that this could change as the introduction of a new 'super track' could allow athletes to massively improve on their times, perhaps aiding them in dethroning Bolt.

In the wake of the news, the 38-year-old has finally responded to fans asking him to come out of retirement and return to the track.

Having won boasting eight Olympic gold medals and boasting world records in the 100m, 200m, and 4x100m events, Bolt is widely regarded as the greatest sprinter of all time.

Despite the efforts of the likes of current Olympic 100m champion Noah Lyles, Bolt's impressive set of records remain in tact despite the fact that he retired in 2017.

And when asked if he would be open to returning to the sport for a future All-Star event, Bolt seemed more than eager to show he still has it.

Speaking on the 'Ready Set Go' podcast, co-hosted by former rival Justin Gatlin and retired athlete Rodney Green, Bolt said: "I'm ready, just for the fun of it. I'm ready, let's go. It'll be fun."

But when asked if he would be up for facing off against Gatlin again, the Jamaican legend was less keen, replying: "Nah man, Justin, him? He's in too good of a shape. Bro I see him doing starts all the time. I asked him, I text him, 'Bro, why are you in such good shape?'"

Instead, Bolt suggested a stacked lineup including some of the very best to ever do it,

"Me, you, Tyson Gay, Asafa Powell, Yohan Blake," suggested Bolt.

"I would definitely like to compete against Maurice Green, Ben Johnson. Let's give Noah (Lyles) the spot just because I would love to race against him."

It remains to be seen whether World Athletics will move forward with implementing a rule change that could see sprinters compete on the 'super track,' but if so, this potential all-star even could give Bolt the opportunity to once again break his own world record.
