David Ferrer will join Casper Ruud’s team in 2027, the Norwegian confirmed in his own announcement on 7 November. It announces an addition without detailing the entire coaching line-up for next year.
Spain comes first
According to the RFET’s October statement, Ferrer leaves the Davis Cup captaincy on 31 December, relinquishing the final year of his contract.
Marc López takes over on 1 January, through 2029. At the Bologna Final 8 on 24–29 November, López will still work as Ferrer’s assistant. Before the new assignment alongside Ruud, Ferrer therefore has a season to finish with Spain.
