Puma Unveil Usain Bolt's New, Personalised Football Boots

Puma Unveil Usain Bolt's New, Personalised Football Boots

Usain Bolt's newfound alliance with Borussia Dortmund may be nothing more than a marketing ploy between the nine time Olympic champion and Bundesliga giant's shared sponsor Puma, but the German sportswear giant is certainly going all out to make us believe the biggest Jamaican hero since the 1988 Winter Olympic Bobsleigh team will indeed be turning out for BVB in a competitive game.

Bolt began training with Dortmund last week, despite repeatedly dropping not so subtle hints that he wants a trial with his beloved Manchester United. And since pictures emerged of the fastest man in the world being put through his paces with Thomas Tuchel's men, rumours have been abound that a first team appearance could be in the offing.

To further add fuel to the fire, Puma have now released images of a pair of specially designed boots for Bolt, informing the Jamaican, "your boots are ready".


Will we ever actually get to see the boots in action, though? We wouldn't mind seeing a strike partnership of Bolt and Aubameyang putting Bundesliga defences through their paces, even if Mats Hummels doesn't seem overly fussed about the prospect of coming face-to-face and feet-to-feet with the nine time Olympic champion.
