Avid Manchester United fan Usain Bolt has revealed he was forced to cheer for City in the final weeks of the Premier League season.
The Blues won a second successive league title on the final day of the campaign, edging out Liverpool by a point after a thrilling title race.
With United languishing down in sixth Bolt had to hope for small mercies, with City denying Liverpool the chance to end their 29-year-wait for the league championship.
Bolt, who will play for the World XI in Soccer Aid at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, was delighted to see City beat Brighton 4-1 on the final weekend of the season and he revealed he picked up the phone to call Raheem Sterling to congratulate him on winning the league.
"Listen that’s the only time I cheered for City," Bolt told The Sportsman ahead of Soccer Aid.
"I was so happy, I called Raheem (Sterling) and I was like well done bloke!”
