Asked by Argentine magazine Viva: "Would you prefer to be like Lionel Messi or like Cristiano Ronaldo?", the world`s fastest man replied: "I`d be a good mixture. By combining the talents of the two and adding my speed and my heart, I would be the greatest!"


Bolt has often stated his dream of playing for Manchester United.
