Jamaican five-time Olympic champion Elaine Thompson-Herah has appointed Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce's coach Reynaldo Walcott as her new coach following her split from Shanikie Osbourne earlier this month.

Andi Sports Management, Thompson-Herah’s agency, stated on Thursday that the separation from Osbourne resulted from a “breakdown in negotiations on a compensation package” sought by Osbourne.

Thompson-Herah and Walcott begin their collaboration less than a year before she defends her 100-meter and 200-meter titles at the Paris Games.
