Novak Djokovic understands Zlatan Ibrahimovic

The words of Novak Djokovic

Novak Djokovic talked about more than just tennis during his latest press conference at the Us Open: "Zlatan Ibrahimovic è my favorite soccer player, without a doubt".

"His Balkan mentalityè something that is very familiar to me even though maybe to the rest of the world it seems strange. I understand him a lot and I have known him for 15 years. Nikola Jokic, the best basketball player in the world right now. Unbelievable guy. Everyone is soì amazed by his skills, what he does on a basketball court. I’m not a basketball expert, so I can’t speak much about his game, but I’m a big fan. Obviously a basketball player coming from Serbia, dominating the NBA, è something that doesn’t happen very often. I think it never happened in the history of basketball in Serbia to have the best player in the NBA. È amazing. We all love him, we support him. Currently è a basketball world championship is going on. We are in the quarterfinals. I am following it and trying to stay up to date with all the sporting events: volleyball, but also the world championship in athletics that è took place a few weeks ago. It è normal for me to follow them, this è my area, the field in which my life takes place. I understand what they are going through and I admire many of them".
