Novak Djokovic‘s limited participation in tournaments has kept him out of top headlines this year. Coming back with an alarming update, the Serb recently announced his separation from his coach Goran Ivanisevic. Besides being shocked by the sudden split, one common question that the fans currently hold is, who will be his new coach?
The shocking update is making the rounds on social media with fans coming up with multiple names that could potentially coach the Serb, considering the fact that crucial events like the French Open and the Paris Olympics lie ahead. Dropping in a surprise, there were many suggestions for one common name, Roger Federer.
In a post on X(formerly Twitter) that welcomed the engagement of fans with a question, “Just for fun, who would you like to see as Novak’s new coach?” a fan, simply suggested the name, “Federer”.

With several other comments on a similar note, the fans indulged in a fun conversation imagining Roger Federer getting involved with Djokovic in a new way. While news of the new coaching team is awaited, it will be different than what Djokovic and Ivanisevic shared, for more than one reason.
Novak Djokovic shares insights of his ‘rock-solid’ partnership with Goran Ivanisevic
Novak Djokovic’s announcement of parting ways with his coach Goran Ivanisevic didn’t come out as a formal announcement. The Serb used his Instagram post to not just inform fans but also to express his feelings for his coach. “Our on-court chemistry had its ups and downs, but our friendship was always rock solid,” Djokovic wrote, summarising his 5-year-long partnership with Goran.
