Novak Djokovic's staggering net worth amid retirement 'rumours'

Novak Djokovic is no stranger to Wimbledon's Centre Court, winning the tournament seven times and today he's taking on Italian and 22nd seed Flavio Cobolli in the quarter finals as he attempts to lift the famous trophy once more.

On Monday, BBC tennis commentator John McEnroe jokingly suggested the legend could "retire on the spot" if he played another set as badly as his opening one against Alex de Minaur, which he lost 6-1. But the Serbian went onto storm the match and has previously said he feels he has more Grand Slam wins to achieve, with 2028 widely marked a possible year for his retirement from the game.

And whether he lifts the Wimbledon title this year or not to receive a £3million prize, Novak is already considered one of the greatest tennis players of all time. One of only three men to have achieved a career Golden Slam, which means winning all four global Grand Slam tournaments as well as the Olympic gold medal, his net worth is staggering...

Married to Jelena Djokovic with two children, Stefan and Tara, the 38-year-old has a whopping netted £138million in prize money for singles and doubles tournaments around the globe in the course of his tennis career. As well as Grand Slam wins, he has 40 ATP 1000 titles and he is the only player to complete the Career Golden Masters by winning all ATP 1000 tournaments of the tennis calendar - twice.

But Novak's net worth is far higher, at £193million. This includes huge brand deals - the player was sponsored by Adidas until 2009 before signing a ten-year deal with Sergio Tacchini.

In 2012, he penned a five-year brand ambassador deal with Uniqlo that was reportedly worth just under £7m-a-year and in 2017, he ended his deal with Uniqlo and signed with Lacoste as a brand ambassador instead. The list of marquee brands affiliated with Djokovic also includes the likes of Mercedes-Benz and Seiko. Between June 2018 and June 2019 alone, he earned an astonishing £40million from sponsorships.

The entrepreneur has a passion for food, once owning a vegan restaurant in Monte Carlo, Monaco and creating a line of nutritional food products. And the Serb's business Family Sport has his relatives onboard, focusing on hospitality but also involved in real estate, events and sports wear.

The UNICEF Good Will Ambassador likes to give back too when it comes to his money - The Novak Djokovic Foundation is a non-profit organisation which aims to help kids from disadvantaged backgrounds. Since its inception in 2007, the charity has built 73 preschools, trained over 2,000 teachers and impacted over 56,500 children.
