Novak Djokovic said he was unsure who would be his new coach, or even if there would be one, a day after
ending a five-year association with Goran Ivanisevic
.

Djokovic had brought 2001 Wimbledon champion Ivansevic on board as a member of his team ahead of the grass court season in 2019 and under his guidance won 12 of his 24 career major titles.

“Concerning my following stage about a coach for me I don’t have any clear idea who that might be and if anyone will be,” Djokovic said at a press conference in Belgrade.

“I have always had coaches by my side, since I was young. I am trying to feel what is good for me in this moment.”

Djokovic has had a poor start to 2024 by his lofty standards, losing to eventual champion
Jannik Sinner at the Australian Open
semi-finals.

The 36-year-old then
lost to Italy’s Luca Nardi in the third round at Indian Wells
, prompting him to withdraw from the ongoing Miami Open.

He is due to return to action at the Monte Carlo Masters next month in the build-up to the season’s second Grand Slam at the French Open.
