Love for tennis will never die: Novak Djokovic
Speaking ahead of the Shanghai Masters, Djokovic expressed his intention to maintain close ties to tennis after retiring from the professional circuit. Djokovic said: “My love for tennis will never fade. I have many emotions when I play, especially during tournaments but also during practice sessions.” Things don’t always go my way, but I think my relationship with tennis is much deeper than a tournament, a year, or my successes and failures. ”
Djokovic emphasized that tennis was an integral part of his life from a young age. “I think even if I retire from professional tennis, I’m going to stay in the tennis world and continue to be involved in different roles, because for all that this sport has given me, I have so much to offer to this sport. Because I feel I owe it,” he added.
Father’s insight into Djokovic’s future
Srdjan Djokovic recently revealed more details about his son’s future plans. He said Djokovic plans to return to his hometown of Belgrade once his tennis career is over. “Once Novak finishes his tennis career, he will live in his hometown of Belgrade, Serbia,” Srdjan revealed. He also expressed his pride in his son representing Serbia globally, saying, “I can think of no greater satisfaction, pride and success than seeing my son spread the glory of his people and motherland all over the world.” ” he said.
Djokovic’s global real estate portfolio
Although Djokovic plans to settle in Belgrade, his real estate portfolio reflects his international presence. In 2018, he bought a three-bedroom penthouse in New Belgrade overlooking Lake Pavlova. Djokovic also owns luxury apartments in New York’s SoHo district, Monaco and Marbella, showing his global footprint.
Djokovic’s career may not be over yet, and he still has a chance to qualify for the 2028 Olympics. But his comments and his father’s revelations indicate the tennis star is preparing for the next phase of his life, one that will keep him connected to the sport he loves.
