Six-time Olympic champion, Usain Bolt, will run in the London Anniversary Games before heading to Rio in the summer.
The Jamaican, who won gold in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m at Beijing in 2008 and London four years later, will take part in the IAAF Diamond League meeting on July 22 at Queen Elizabeth Park in London.
In a statement, the 29-year-old said: “The London Anniversary Games will be one of my last races before the Olympic Games in Rio.
“Bolt celebrates Olympic gold at London Olympics in 2012
“It will be good to return to the Olympic Stadium on the Friday night and get more of the special atmosphere that the fans always produce.
“I always get great support in the UK and I expect the stadium to be packed.”
