Former World No. 3, Ivan Ljubicic, was known for his offensive style of play, strong serve, and powerful groundstrokes from both wings. Besides his career as a player, Ivan is also famous for being “Roger Federer’s” coach. They’ve won 3 Grand Slams, thus being a successful partnership.

The Croatian recently set up his own management agency called “LJ Sports Group” with Matteo Berrettini being his first high profile signing. 

Ljubicic holds the Italian in high regard. He said,

“Matteo is an exceptional guy, as well as a great player. For me Berrettini has the potential of a Grand Slam victory, as well as a modern tennis that can still be improved”.

Ljubicic goes on to add, “The really interesting thing is that Matteo was born on clay and then got the best results on concrete. An atypical ripening with great prospects, with gigantic growth margins on both surfaces.” 

Matteo is still young in the game and has shown real potential; being under Ivan also indicates that he’s moving in the right direction. Only time will tell how this partnership unfolds.
