David Ferrer has been giving a lot of interviews lately about the end of his tennis career that will happen in May at the Mutua Madrid Open. 'I have one year left and I have ahead of me six tournaments and I only want to look at the present.

I am very focused and motivated to end my career as best as possible', said the 36-year-old. Once he ends his career, Ferrer will stay connected to the Javea Tennis Club and Ferrer Tennis Academy 'because I love tennis and that's my passion.

If I can help in something, I will always be here, but the Academy is very well managed by my brother Javier Ferrer and his member Israel. In the next future, I want to grow in what motivates me personally.' He did not deny that could become a coach; 'I like it much.

But the player doesn't have to hold qualities, but simply the desire to learn and that he trusts in his coach. The coach needs to shape the person.' Ferrer also recalled his beginnings as a junior player and said he just played two or three tournaments on this category, as you did not have many and because he was focused more on Futures.

'It wasn't crucial in my career. I would have liked to have the opportunities that current junior players now have in order to be able to learn and not having to play Satellite tournaments where I was maybe too much young.'
