After a 24-year career, Roger Federer recently announced his retirement from tennis, stating that the 2022 Laver Cup would be his final competition. With his retirement, one of the greatest rivalries also comes to an end.
Real Madrid are planning an exhibition match between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer at the Santiago Bernabeu. The newly-remodeled stadium would host the event in front of 80,000 fans, which could set a new record for attendance at a tennis match.
The current record is held by both tennis players in another exhibition event in South Africa in 2020, where they managed to gather almost 52,000 spectators.
Although there is no set date for the exhibition match, more details are anticipated to be revealed following the Laver Cup at the London O2 Arena.
