Novak Djokovic does not close the door to sharing projects with his two great rivals of the same generation, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, once their sporting careers have taken different paths.

The Serbian tennis player, during an event related to his new partnership with the investment firm General Atlantic, stated that he would be delighted to work with the Spaniard and the Swiss on initiatives related to sports, technology, or the business world. Beyond the historic rivalry that the three have featured in for almost two decades, Djokovic made it clear that there is mutual respect that could lead to future collaborations.

"I would love to have the opportunity to sit down with both of them, just the three of us, without interruptions or distractions, and be able to talk about everything, how we felt playing against each other, what we thought of each other. I am sure there would be a lot to say at that table," said the Serbian.

The Serbian explained that this meeting would be a unique occasion to share experiences from one of the most successful periods in the history of men's tennis, marked by the dominance of the three members of the famous Big3.

In addition to the personal level, Djokovic went a step further by referring to a possible professional relationship with Federer and Nadal. "Of course, I am always open to doing business and collaborating with them also in the tennis, sports, technology, or any other project field," he noted. The statements come at a time when Federer has already retired and Nadal has recently ended his professional career, while Djokovic continues to compete at the highest level. Nevertheless, the Serbian acknowledges that his interest in developing projects off the court is growing and that his future also involves exploring new business opportunities.

Djokovic's reflection took place during the presentation of his incorporation as the new ambassador of General Atlantic, one of the most important investment firms in the world. The tennis player explained that this is the first collaboration of this kind that he undertakes and admitted to feeling very proud and excited about an alliance that he considers "an opportunity for me personally, for my legacy, and for my brand."

Djokovic defined his approach to understanding business by stating that he is an innovator by nature. "I like to break patterns and challenge the status quo, both on and off the court," pointed out the 24-time champion. He also emphasized that he seeks people and partners with a similar mindset, a reason why he believes that General Atlantic is the ideal partner to start this new phase. "I want to explore other areas, other markets, and other industries, always accompanied by the most prepared, successful, and proven leaders in their sector," he concluded.
