Kylian Mbappe: Real Madrid Bound Star ‘Accepts’ Usain Bolt’s 100 Metre Race Challenge

• Kylian Mbappe has accepted Usain Bolt's 100m race challenge
• The Olympic champion challenged the footballer weeks back
• The Real Madrid-bound star is one of the fastest footballers

Kylian Mbappe accepted Usain Bolt's 100-metre race challenge after the Jamaican athlete challenged the French footballer in an interview days ago.

Mbappe is one of the fastest footballers in the world and uses his speed and trickery to skip past opponents before unleashing ferocious shots past goalkeepers.

He has made a name for himself as one of the best in the world and is seen by many football fans as the heir apparent to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Per Marca, he has agreed to join Spanish giants Real Madrid in the summer when he runs down his Paris Saint-Germain contract, having chosen not to renew.

Speaking in an interview at the Laureus World Sports Awards held in Madrid last month, the legendary sprinter, Bolt, claimed he would love to race against the PSG star.

The 2018 World Cup winner has responded and accepts the challenge whenever there is time, though he doesn't fancy his chances against the world record holder.

He made this known at a promotional event organised by Nike and his foundation, as quoted by RMC Sports.

“It would be fun, why not one day if we both have the time, do something nice. I don’t expect much from the result,” he said.

Per Speed Showdown on YouTube, the footballer stands no chance against the sprinter after a simulation video showed both in a 100-metre race, in which Bolt finished in 9.58 seconds and Mbappe in 10.9 seconds.

The Manchester United fan won eight Olympic gold medals at three events before retiring in 2017.
