SPAIN NOT INVESTIGATING DJOKOVIC
Spanish authorities have rejected reports that they are investigating Djokovic over his recent entry into the country.
Reports emerged on Thursday that the 20-time major winner was under investigation after travelling from Serbia to Spain, where he practiced ahead of travelling to Australia.
Tennis reporter Gaspar Ribeiro Lanca tweeted on Thursday: “Breaking news: COPE reports that the Spanish Government is now investigating whether unvaccinated Novak Djokovic entered the country illegally in late December. Since September 20, citizens from Serbia need a vaccine certificate OR a special exemption to enter Spanish territory but so far the authorities say they did not receive any request from Djokovic.”
However, these reports have now been refuted.
“The news is false. Neither the government has ordered it nor is there any police investigation open on the athlete,” a spokesperson for Spain’s interior ministry told Politico.
