According to ESPN, an exhibition match between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer is in the works. These are two of the biggest names in white sport ever and this magnificent moment should take place in an equally magnificent venue. The stunning Estadio Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid, Spain will have the honour of hosting what is sure to be an unforgettable event.
Those who follow tennis will know that all fans of the sport have been hit by very sad news in recent days. The one and only Roger Federer has decided to end his career.
The legendary Swiss wants to hang up his racket after the Laver Cup. At least from a professional point of view. As part of his farewell, he would play a duel against his old rival and friend Rafael Nadal.
An equally famous name in the tennis world. FedEx has long been plagued by injuries. He has promised fans over the months that he will be back, that he wants it very, very much.
He is expected to return at this year’s Laver Cup, which will be played at the end of September. And after this tournament, something that all the fans hoped would never happen will probably follow.
The end of Roger Federer’s illustrious professional career. Even Nadal himself used those words on his Twitter account. “Dear Roger, my friend. I hoped this day would never come.”
The last and biggest match between these old rivals is being attempted by Real Madrid. The club, as such, has a great relationship with Nadal and so everything looks very real. The match would be hosted at the stunning Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, which is freshly renovated.
It’s not entirely clear when the stadium will finally open and when everything will be ready, but there is talk of late this year and early next year. If the club actually manages to implement and organize everything, it would be an incredible feast of tennis and certainly an unforgettable experience for all fans of the sport!
