Novak Djokovic flew to Germany to support his home country Serbia ahead of their UEFA Euro 2024 Group stage match against Denmark. 

After spending the morning in Wimbledon practicing ahead of a possible comeback, Djokovic traveled to Munich to watch the football match live. He was spotted in the crowd taking pictures with the fans and even gave an interview before the contest.

Dressed in a blue blazer and white trousers, Djokovic cheered on all the Serbian players. He also shook hands with them on the sidelines and even stood in their box before the match kicked off.

It was an important game for team Serbia, who were looking to register their first win in the tournament. However, Djokovic’s presence failed to turn their fortunes as they were held to a goalless draw by the Danes. With that result, Serbia’s elimination from the 2024 Euros was also confirmed. 

Paul McNamee confident about Novak Djokovic’s Wimbledon participation

On the tennis front, all eyes are currently on Novak Djokovic, who is yet to confirm his participation at the upcoming Wimbledon Championships. Having undergone surgery to address the injury he picked up at the French Open, he is still working towards reaching his full fitness.

While there was a lot of doubt about his participation in the grass Slam, they were eased a bit when he flew to Wimbledon to train ahead of the event. In a video shared on social media, he can be seen training on the court with a gray band on his right knee.

Responding to a post about which player fans were eagerly looking forward to watching at SW19, former Australian tennis star Paul McNamee named Djokovic, stating that he would compete against all odds 

That’s simple… Novak Djokovic… competing against all the odds… that’s true respect for Wimbledon PS.

Paul McNamee wrote on X. 

If Djokovic goes all the way in Wimbledon this year, he will secure a record-equalling eighth title, which will see him go level with Roger Federer for the most titles won at the tournament.
