A career that has been going strong for more than two decades has featured lucrative sponsorship deals with big names like Lacoste, Asics, Head, and many more.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"1\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_1\" data-trigger-once=\"true\">Djokovic, in the early stage of his career, signed a 10-year-long apparel partnership deal with Italian tennis star Sergio Tacchini&#8217;s sportswear brand in 2009. However, the brand couldn&#8217;t afford to keep the Serb on board, which led him to sign a five-year deal with Japanese brand Uniqlo in 2012, and he debuted his first kit with the supplier in the French Open of that year.<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"2\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_2\" data-trigger-once=\"true\">Lacoste, a French designer sportswear brand, then offered the former World No. 1 a deal with a reported value of around $9 million per year in 2017.<\/p>\n<div class=\"also-read-articles-container\" data-variant=\"3\" data-drop-off-point=\"\" data-imp-id=\"also_read_article_container\" data-trigger-once=\"true\">\n<div class=\"related-heading\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"related-articles\" class=\"related-articles\">\n<div class=\"related-articles-scroll\">\n<div class=\"article-single-related article-related-recommend\">\n<div class=\"article-related-title article-related-recommend-title\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s quite incredible to see all these different people around the world get together to give me their support,&#8221; he said after the deal was renewed in 2022 (via Lacoste).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-idx=\"3\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_3\" data-trigger-once=\"true\">The 24-time Grand Slam champion added\u00a0Asics\u00a0as his footwear partner in 2018 and since then has been going strong, with multiple collections launched in collaboration with the tennis star. Their deal is currently valued at a whopping $4 million per year (per Verdict).<\/p>\n<p data-idx=\"4\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_4\" data-trigger-once=\"true\">However, his longest partner remains\u00a0Head. The tennis manufacturer has been the racket sponsor of the star since his junior days and returned in 2009. In addition to this, he has also been associated with Swiss watchmaking company Hublot since August 2021.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Novak Djokovic on working with his foundation<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"io-done\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=190 190w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=720 720w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1045 1045w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1460 1460w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1600 1600w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg 1920w\" alt=\"Novak Djokovic impactful in changing lives of Serbians- Source: Getty\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" data-img=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=190 190w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=720 720w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1045 1045w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1460 1460w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=1600 1600w, https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg 1920w\" data-img-low=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/editor\/2025\/05\/9fc94-17468223520618-1920.jpg?w=640\" \/><figcaption>Novak Djokovic impactful in changing lives of Serbians- Source: Getty<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p data-idx=\"5\" data-imp-id=\"article_paragraph_5\" data-trigger-once=\"true\">Novak Djokovic, through his efforts to make life better for the people in his country, started his foundation more than 15 years ago.
