"It's a great challenge" - Medvedev excited about possible match with Djokovic

Novak Djokovic will play in Dubai and so will Daniil Medvedev with the Russian looking forward to meeting the Serbian on the court.

It's been a while since they last played as their last match was at the ATP Finals which Djokovic won. It was a close match overall but the Serbian was able to pull it out and Medvedev would not mind a rematch between the two.

If I want to reach Novak, probably what you say is semis, it's a great challenge because Novak barely loses matches. So there is a big chance he's going to be in the semi unless someone plays the match of his life and manage to beat him.

Medvedev had a great week in Doha reaching the final and beating Murray in the final. He will play against Matteo Arnaldi in the first round, and he understands that every match will be tough because it's a big event with a lot of great players.

Yeah, I want to say every match is going to be difficult. Again, I don't know who I play the first round. I have to take it match by match. Dubai is a very strong tournament, so big challenge to come from here and play there. I'm going to try to be 100% physically, because that's the most important. If you're not, it's tough to beat anyone, and that's what I'm going to try to do.
