Usain Bolt's basic Pro Evolution Soccer 2018 stats have been revealed - and, as you'd imagine, no one is going to be able to catch him.

The eight-time Olympic gold medalist has been given a speed rating of 99 as well as an explosive power rating of 99.

He will play as a left-winger, and perhaps more surprisingly, has been given an overall rating of 75, putting him just three marks behind Kylian Mbappe on 78 (his rating on the beta version of the game, which could yet change).

Bolt previously spoke out about his delight in getting the chance to live out his dream as a Man United player when the game is released on September 14.

"I love football and have played PES for as long as I can remember – it's the best football game there is – and it's a great honour to be a part of it and its success," said Bolt.

"When the opportunity arose to be a player in PES 2018, it was too good to be true.

"Having my face and movements scanned for use in the game was a fascinating process and I hope those who pre-order the game make full use of my pace and skill!"

Bolt, who retired from athletics after the World Championships in London this summer, will also have a chance to take on Lionel Messi - albeit virtually.

Bolt previously challenged the Barcelona star to a race, saying: "I always like to try new things and Messi is one of the greatest footballers to ever grace the face of this earth.

"It would be an honour [to race him] because I have never met Messi."
