The social media message reads, "Who's watching Usain Bolt race tonight? #AgentP #London2017 #BeTheNext #forever fastest."

In the photograph, the footballer can be seen proudly behind the sprinter, clutching a Manchester United jersey.

Ahead of him, Bolt stands doing his signature celebration which is said to replicate a lighting bolt.

However, Bolt's 45-race winning streak ended in the 100m semi-final, where he lost to American ace Christian Coleman.

The 30-year-old Jamaican still managed to qualify for the final at the World Championships in London.

The two giants of their sports are good friends, with Bolt claiming that he wants to celebrate his retirement with the United midfielder.

Bolt insisted that he will hang up his running spikes and enjoy a pint of Guinness and a Nando's with the French footballer.

Paul Pogba also recently posted a video of himself running across the Great Wall of China and included the Jamaican's name.
