--><\/p>\n<p>Rafael Jodar has emerged as the player most likely to hire former world No 1 Juan Carlos Ferrero for the 2027 and he has refused to dispel the rumours that a deal may already be in place for an all-Spanish link-up.<\/p>\n<p>Ferrero has confirmed he is set to return to the game next year, after spending a year on the sidelines following his split with Carlos Alcaraz.<\/p>\n<p>Former French Open champion Ferrero revealed he is set to return to the game for next season, with rising Spanish star Jodar emerging as a leading contender to land the respected coach.<\/p>\n<p>There have been some lavish rumours linking Ferrero with move to link up with Alcaraz\u2019s great rivsal Jannik Sinner, but it seems more likely that he would fit into the set-up with Jodar.<\/p>\n<p>After winning his match against Thiago Agustin Tirante, Jodar was quizzed about the prospect of teaming up with Ferrero and he insisted he would not be drawn on the topic for now.<\/p>\n<h2>More Tennis
