Djokovic commented on the deportation

Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic commented on the decision of the court, according to which he was deported from Australia. His words are quoted by The Age reporter Paul Sakkal in his Twitter.

Djokovic, 34, admitted that he needs time to recover and recover. The athlete noted that then he would give a more detailed commentary. “Now I am extremely disappointed with the decision,” he added.

Earlier on January 16, Djokovic lost his appeal in court. The athlete will be deported. He will also be banned from entering Australia for three years.

Thus, the Serb will not be able to take part in the Australian Open. Djokovic is the current trophy holder.

The tennis player has already tried to be expelled from the country. On January 10, the Serbian visa was canceled, since the document did not imply the inclusion of data on a medical exemption from vaccination against coronavirus. Djokovic managed to win the appeal and avoid deportation. However, he was soon arrested again.
