Ferrero Says Contract Disagreements Ended Seven-Year Coaching Run With Alcaraz

Ferrero portrays the rupture as a matter of unresolved terms rather than results.

Overview

  • In his first interview since the split, Ferrero told Marca that unresolved contract points ended the partnership and that the sides never sat down to fix them.
  • He said the financial issue was not the reason, stressing that money was not one of the problems for him.
  • Ferrero said he is hurting and will take two to three months off before considering future roles, without ruling out a possibility such as working with Jannik Sinner.
  • Reports from Spanish outlets allege a 48‑hour deadline to sign a new deal and friction with Alcaraz’s father, with Toni Nadal and other figures questioning the handling.
  • Samuel López is expected to lead Alcaraz’s team through the Australian Open as the world No. 1 starts 2026 without Ferrero.
