Rafael Nadal retirement prediction after tennis icon opens up on injury 'complications'


On his injury, the 35-year-old continued: “I have some pain in my foot. It’s been a complicated time for me on a personal and professional level. The recovery process will be tough and painful at times.”

While Nadal’s injury woes have had fans concerned, with some wondering whether his body will give up on him and force him to retire, former top 25 player and 1992 Barcelona Olympic silver medallist Jordi Arrese has given his verdict on an upcoming retirement for his fellow Spaniard, and has positive expectations.

“If Rafa recovers, he still has two or three very good years left because he has too good a level and is a mental predator,” he said, according to AS.

Arrese also weighed in on the greatest-of-all-time debate after Novak Djokovic failed to pull ahead of his long-time rivals Federer and Nadal in the Grand Slam race at the recent US Open.
