The Spaniard is a fan of Alcaraz similar to many former tennis players. The type of tennis Alcaraz plays just draws fans towards him and with a likeable personality as well the Spaniard seems destined for stardom. Speaking exclusively about the tennis part of his journey, Ferrer has no doubt about him becoming a superb player:

"Alcaraz is a great player, and without a doubt he is going to be a much better tennis player than me, that is very clear to me. Carlos has to make his career, but I’m sure he’s going to reach number one and win Grand Slams because mentally he’s a very well-established player."
