After five years together, they mutually parted ways at the start of the year.<\/p>\n<p>While Ivanisevic has already taken on a new role with Elena Rybakina, Djokovic has yet to bring a new voice into his camp. He worked with a few temporary mentors over the clay season but has been without a full-time coach since March.<\/p>\n<p>However, that could be about to change.

I don&#8217;t know anything about that. That&#8217;s the gossip I heard yesterday, I didn&#8217;t hear from him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While Troicki didn\u2019t hear the rumours directly from Djokovic, he knows a thing or two about what the Olympic champion will be looking for in a coach.<\/p>\n<p>The 38-year-old has mentored Djokovic in his role as the Serbian Davis Cup captain. And he believes the current world No. 5 will want to work with an elite ex-player whether or not they have much coaching experience.<\/p>\n<p>Troicki continued: \u201cHonestly, I&#8217;m also guessing because I have no information and no idea who it could be. Again, he will be looking for a big name with whom he can share experiences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cOf course, Novak is the best in history and the new coach will not teach him forehand or backhand, we are all aware of that, but he needs someone with whom he can share the experience. It is very important that he finds peace when he looks at him, he needs that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo get a comment at a given moment. He is really demanding about it and asks his box for information because he is a perfectionist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo I think it will be an impressive name. It does not necessarily mean that he was already a coach, maybe someone with less coaching experience, but someone of great reputation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Djokovic has already ended his season after pulling out of the ATP Finals citing an injury. The 37-year-old will be back in action in Australia in January. He recently said he wanted to play a tournament in the first week of the new year and plans to go \u201cfull throttle\u201d in the off-season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Novak Djokovic has been without a full-time coach since splitting with Goran Ivanisevic in March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1481,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1480","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tennis"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Novak Djokovic has &#039;something brewing with new coach&#039;
