Olympics sprint champ Usain Bolt says he's dumped Manchester United to cheer on Real Madrid. Bolt admits he grew up supporting United, but explained: "Ruud van Nistelrooy is my favourite soccer player and therefore I supported him in Manchester, but now his club is Real Madrid and they're now my favourites because he is here.

"And also there is Cristiano (Ronaldo), who is a great friend."

Bolt saw Real defeat Deportivo La Coruna on Saturday and added: "It was a nice game and competitive, the one I most liked was Lass, who scored one goal and looks a bit like me when I play!"
