Ferrer on Nadal: "He'll play singles".
Rafael Nadal will return to Davis Cup in November.
Selected by David Ferrer to play in the Davis Cup finals, the Majorcan is likely to be over-motivated by the stakes.
However, it will also be essential for Nadal to get into a rhythm, especially as he hasn't played indoors since the 2022 Masters.
Asked about this, Ferrer, captain of the Spanish national team, explained: "I have no doubt that if he's doing well and I see him training properly, he'll play singles.
When the draw was made, I sent him a message to tell him to get ready to play Botic Van de Zandschulp (Spain will face the Netherlands in the quarter-finals).
His reply was clear: 'I'll be ready'.
I know he'll be playing in the Six Kings Slam exhibition this month, and I'd like him to take part in another tournament before joining the team.
I'll be discussing this with him over the coming weeks."
