Serbia’s legendary tennis player Novak Djokovic has reportedly parted ways with longtime agent and manager Eduardo Artaldi.
The two have been working together since 2008, right after the 36-year-old went on to win his maiden Grand Slam title in Melbourne.
Serbian journalist Sasa Ozmo, in a post on his official account on social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — confirmed the development.
The development will be a surprising one for many tennis fans, especially as Djokovic has recently registered his 24th Grand Slam triumph in New York.
The 36-year-old defeated the current world number three Russia’s Daniil Medvedev in straight sets with a score of 6-3, 7-6, 6-3 to lift his fourth US Open title.
Coming into the year, there were concerns about whether Djokovic would be able to keep his winning run going against some young and exciting talent around.
However, the Belgrade-born was exceptional throughout the year where he ended up winning three out of the four Grand Slams.
His only defeat in a major tournament in 2023 came in Wimbledon where he lost a five-set thrilling final to Spain’s young tennis star Carlos Alcaraz with a score of 1–6, 7–6(8–6), 6–1, 3–6, 6–4.
