Overview
- Juan Carlos Ferrero said he stopped following Carlos Alcaraz on Instagram to get “a little time to separate,” insisting it was not done out of spite.
- He acknowledged the effort did not fully create distance because tennis and tournament accounts still surface Alcaraz content in his feed.
- Ferrero expressed continued affection for his former pupil, saying he wants a conversation to “normalize what happened” and that he would like to give him a hug.
- Asked about a possible return to Alcaraz’s team, Ferrero said that deep down he could not say no to coaching him again.
- The pair’s 2018–2025 run produced 24 titles, including six Grand Slams and a stint at world No. 1, with the split announced three months ago and the full interview released March 5 on Chiringuito Inside.
