Rafa Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz | A tennis legend predicts that Nadal will coach Alcaraz

On November 19, Rafael Nadal ended his career in Malaga, in the Davis Cup. The Spaniard said goodbye to people and tennis, leaving behind a lasting legacy, incredible victories, trophies and a way of understanding the game (and life) that has inspired millions of people. “I’m retiring from tennis but I’m still here, I hope to be a good tennis ambassador. That’s what I’ve tried all my life, to try to be better and to achieve goals. I’ve tried to do it with dignity and humility, and appreciate all the good things that have happened to me. “I’ve tried to be a good person, I hope you see thus,” he assured the audience of Martín Carpena.

It seems that Nadal will continue to be associated with the world of tennis. Although he has a part as a businessman, with hotels and restaurants, perhaps his main activity is his tennis school in his native Manacor. There hundreds of young people try to fulfill the dream that Rafa had. Maybe bigger than he thinks. But is it possible for Nadal to become a coach?

For Mats Wilander, former No. 1 and winner of seven Grand Slams, it’s a tough one. The Swedes firmly believe that the future of the Balearic Islands is in the making. Especially Carlos Alcaraz. “It is very possible that Nadal will return as a coach. “I can see him coaching Alcaraz,” he said in an interview with Euroesport.

Although Alcaraz maintains a good relationship with his current coach, Juan Carlos Ferrero, Wilander also spoke about the role that Nadal could change: “Carlos has a very good coach now, but he has to remain the same in every match. Nadal was able to maintain that attitude, so I can see his importance .

And if he is not a coach, Wilander believes that Nadal will have a very important role in the world of tennis: “Be that as it may, Nadal will take part in the thinking of tennis, either as a coach or a commentator, and that is valuable. He can be the future guide of Davis cup.

Meanwhile, seeing the Nadal-Alcaraz pair again as it happened in the last Paris Games seems difficult. However, it is a concept that excites several fans.
