Carlos Moya may have dismissed reports that he is set to become Jannik Sinner\u2019s coach, but a former world No 2 has a feeling that \u201cit will happen\u201d.<\/p>\n
Sinner<\/a> is in the market for a new coach to work alongside Simone Vagnozzi as Darren Cahill \u2013 who joined the Italian\u2019s team in 2022 \u2013 will step away from the ATP Tour after the 2025 season.<\/p>\n Just weeks after Moya<\/a> \u2013 who coached Rafael Nadal from 2017 until the tennis retired in November 2024 \u2013 stated that he is not yet interested in a return to coaching as he was \u201cenjoying this moment. After so much time traveling and competing, a detox period was a good idea\u201d, it was reported he had taken up the role to become Sinner\u2019s coach.<\/p>\n Russia\u2019s Bolshe! claimed it was a done deal as journalist Sofya Tartakova wrote on X: \u201cCarlos Moya to coach Jannik Sinner! As Bolshe! has learned, the world No 1 will start working with the Spanish coach in 2026.\u201d<\/p>\n But less than 24 hours later, Moya denied the rrumour telling Radio Nacional de Espa\u00f1a: \u201cMe as his coach? Fake news as big as a house.\u201d<\/p>\n Jannik Sinner has reportedly hired Rafael Nadal\u2019s former coach<\/a><\/p>\n Jannik Sinner has one crucial edge over Carlos Alcaraz, says tennis great<\/a><\/p>\n Speaking after Moya\u2019s \u201cfake news\u201d comment, Corretja explained \u201cwhat he heard\u201d and why he thinks it would be a good move for the Italian.<\/p>\n \u201cI heard about it and I have to say I have been hearing about this rumour for a few weeks already so it didn\u2019t take me as a surprise,\u201d the Spaniard, who finished runner-up at Roland Garros in 1998, said during a TNT Sports interview.<\/p>\n \u201cI think that will be awesome, that would be great. I think that would be a very smart move from Jannik. Carlos has been No 1 in the world, he has been such a great coach as well, he knows the tour.<\/p>\n \u201cI know Carlos won\u2019t go with anyone that is not a big star and have chances of winning a Slam, because it doesn\u2019t make sense for him because it doesn\u2019t make sense for him to go with someone who doesn\u2019t have a chance to win a major.<\/p>\n \u201cI think he would add to him [Sinner] a mentality of knowing, considering also that Alcaraz is his biggest rival now, \u2018how do we think, how do we work with the forehand?\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cI think Moya\u2019s forehand was one of the greatest we ever had. I think Jannik has improved his forehand, but I think there is some space there where he can still improve, the movement, the place on the return, maybe drop shot on the forehand side that Moya played very well as well.<\/p>\n \u201cAlso the mentality, Moya is such a specialist on knowing the game, he loves the statistics, the analysis.<\/p>\n \u201cI think for Jannik it would be an intelligent and a smart move. I would see it as a great combination.<\/p>\n \u201cI think honestly that it will happen. This is my feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n The post Alex Corretja reveals \u2018what he heard\u2019 about Jannik Sinner-Carlos Moya partnership<\/a> appeared first on Tennis365<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Carlos Moya may have dismissed reports that he is set to become Jannik Sinner\u2019s coach, but a former world No 2 has a feeling that \u201cit will happen\u201d.
