"The London Anniversary Games will be one of my last races before the Olympic Games in Rio," Bolt said in a statement.

"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," the 29-year-old sprinter added. 

"I always get great support in the UK and I expect the stadium to be packed."
