The 51-year-old felt that it was ‘understandable’ to see Alcaraz get a lot of fame and recognition at his age, adding that one could not resist the urge at 22. Alcaraz and Ferrero split as a player-coach partnership in December, with the latter stating that disagreement over a new contract between his team and Alcaraz’s team had led to the decision. “Knowing that Juan Carlos is very professional – he was as a player as well – I am sure that he wants absolute commitment from his players and that his demands in terms of professionalism are very high. Probably, given that Carlos is Spanish, very young, and attracted to all external temptations… he has been difficult to work with lately.” “It’s understandable – he’s 22 years old, all the girls are after …
