Sprint legend Usain Bolt gets excluded from training as contract negotiations collapse


Some weeks back, sprint legend Usain Bolt was offered a deal by Australian soccer club Central Coast Mariners but he has not been enlisted in the A-League. This has led to a official breakdown of the contract offer resulting in Bolt's absence in the team's training.

The Mariners are in currently in talks with Bolt's agent, Ricky Simms, but have said that "without the financial contribution of an external third-party, it is unlikely that Usain Bolt and the Central Coast Mariners will agree to terms."

"To ensure that there is no distraction to the A-League squad in preparing for this weekend's match vs Melbourne City, Usain Bolt will not attend team training this week, until and if, the club and Usain Bolt can agree to terms and formalise an arrangement", the Mariners said in a statement on Tuesday.

No details of the offers were confirmed.
