The reunion between Carlos Alcaraz and Ferrero: a hug and good vibes almost a year after separating

Fate has wanted it to be in the ATP Finals in Turin, the last stage in which they competed together, where Carlos Alcaraz and Juan Carlos Ferrero meet again for the first time since almost a year ago both separated their paths after seven successful years together.

It was the most anticipated moment of the tournament, where the presence of the Valencian coach was expected to advise his new pupil, Ben Shelton, before permanently joining his team next season. "I haven't seen him in a long time, but I'm excited and I really want to see him again and talk to him," the man from Murcia had said a day before, thinking about seeing his former coach again.

The meeting between the two came this Saturday, on the Inalpi Arena headquarters, before Carlitos' training, who wore a knee pad on his right leg, when Ferrero stepped onto the court. The former player arrived with a big smile, extended his hand to the player from El Palmar and they both hugged, with the net in the middle.

For a few moments, both spoke animatedly, with the Valencian also exchanging a few words with Samu López, the Spanish tennis player's current coach, and the rest of the members of the world number 3's team, Albert Molina, his agent, and Juanjo Moreno, his physiotherapist.
