Andre Agassi is reportedly in line to be announced as a Laver Cup captain, according to tennis podcast host Craig Shapiro.

The American has largely stayed away from the game since his retirement, briefly coaching Novak Djokovic for the best part of a year in 2017, but still appears in exhibition events for charity. Shapiro stated on X that the announcement is imminent, saying: "Sources telling me Agassi is going to be named new Laver Cup captain."
The tournament sees a team of players from around the world take on stars representing the continent of Europe and is tennis' answer to the Ryder Cup in golf - where players compete against each other in a mixture of singles and doubles matches to earn points for their team.
The 2024 Laver Cup will be held in Berlin, Germany in September. Bjorn Borg and John McEnroe have been the only captains of Team Europe and Team World respectively since the inception of the tournament in 2017.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
