Roger Federer retired from professional tennis only recently but he is already looking to return back to the tennis courts as he has big plans.

The 20-time Grand Slam champion hung his tennis racquet on the wall in a museum, but he will soon need to use it again. After finishing his competitive career on the ATP Tour, the Swiss Maestro will want to entertain fans all around the world with various tennis exhibitions, most likely also with his good friend Rafael Nadal.

"I want to go and play in places I've never been and thank the fans who have supported me throughout my career, that's all I want. My intention is also to organize exhibitions but it is still too early, unfortunately," said Federer.

"My knee is not yet in perfect condition and I have to be patient. The doctors have advised me to be cautious and to wait a few months to see how the situation develops. and this goes not only for tennis but also for other sports that I would like to play, but I have to take it easy," he added.

The exhibition tour may be already in plans as Rafael Nadal said something very similar to what the Swiss legend said. “We have lived a very nice rivalry and I hope that we can do a joint tour in which we play against each other in places that could not enjoy our history,” Nadal said per Puntodebreak.
