Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck has called on Olympic champion Usain Bolt to train with the Red Devils in the future.

The Jamaican sprinter, who won three gold medals at the London 2012 Games in the summer, has been open about his desire to play for the team he supports and Welbeck thinks that the 26-year-old deserves a trial.

"He should come over and trial," Welbeck said in a webchat with supporters via the club's official website. "He should come and train and show us what he's got.

"He's the fastest man in the world. He's one of a kind and I admire the way he prepares for his races. He's a real character."

Meanwhile, United are preparing to take on Sunderland in the Premier League this weekend.
