The former Spanish tennis player is enjoying his life away from the circuit and is using his time to travel around the world. He was at a football match.
Almost two weeks have passed since the day the tennis world mourned Rafael Nadal ‘s farewell. It was at the Davis Cup Finals in Malaga, where Spain’s elimination took a backseat and all eyes were on the man from Manacor’s retirement. With his new life away from tennis, he took the opportunity to travel around the world and, together with his family, visited England, where he had a special presence at Anfield
It is well known that La Fiera is a big football fan, especially of Real Madrid, a team that he supports and with which he has been linked with the possibility of being its future president. And it is no coincidence that a few days ago he was in England, since the Merengue played the fifth date of the Champions League against Liverpool, at the legendary Anfield. The result was not as expected, because Carlo Ancelotti’s team lost 2-0, but from the official broadcast they captured the exact moment in which Rafael Nadal was in one of the boxes.

While enjoying his new life as a retiree, the 38-year-old former tennis player was at Anfield with his sister Maribel, where they enjoyed the match for the top international competition, although the result was not what they had imagined. His visit to the White House match was even linked to the rumours that have been circulating in recent weeks, in which he is linked to the possibility of becoming the new president of the institution.
