Bellamy: I'm In Olympic Squad

Liverpool forward Craig Bellamy has revealed he will be in the Great Britain squad for the Olympics, according to reports.

There are three overage slots available in Stuart Pearce's Team GB squad for the London Olympics later this summer.

And Bellamy claims to have been told he is in line to fill one of those places.

The 32-year-old told The Sun: "I am in the Olympic squad - but I was supposed to keep it quiet.

"It's a different challenge. I had a difficult season with Liverpool but the Olympics is a one-off."

Pearce is set to name his 18-man squad later this week with veterans Ryan Giggs and David Beckham both in contention to join Bellamy in the Olympic squad.
