Sprinting legend and Manchester United superfan Usain Bolt has ruled out joining the club while Louis van Gaal remains at the helm.

The fastest man on the planet has previously claimed that his "dream" is to play for United one day once he calls time on his running career.

"I think I would be pretty good because I am fit, I am quick, I can control the ball and I understand all of the play," Bolt told reporters at the Jamaican Sportsman of the Year awards.

"Well, looking at how Van Gaal is, I don't think I would ever want to be coached by him so I think I will put that on pause until we get a new coach."

United currently sit fifth in the Premier League table, two points adrift of the top four.
