Andy Murray has broken silence on his coaching future after his split with Novak Djokovic.

According to ESPN, Murray, who retired last summer after the Paris Olympics, joined Serbian tennis star as a coach before the Australian Open and remained by his side, among other tournaments.

However, their partnership ended after six months before the French Open, in which the 24-time Grand Slam lost the semifinals to the world No. 1, Jannik Sinner.

Murray not coaching again ‘immediately’

Former British tennis player and coach told the BBC at the Queen's Club earlier this week, “I would do it again at some stage. I don't think that will happen immediately. I wasn't planning on going into coaching as soon as I finished playing, but it was a pretty unique opportunity. It was a chance to learn from one of the best athletes of all time.”

He called the chance to coach Djokovic “a brilliant opportunity,” adding that although results were not as they wanted, they got to spend some “really nice moments” off the court.

Murray was seen more on the golf course than the tennis court since his retirement, but he is set to show his skills once again as he teams up with 10-year-old doubles partner Gloria for a ceremonial two-round match against Aura Robson and seven-year-old Jay.

The 38-year-old expressed, “I've obviously missed being out here. It's the first time, obviously, not being involved in a grass court season for a while, but I've got a new life now, and I'm enjoying being away from the sport a little bit."

Notably, Robson won an Olympic silver medal alongside Murray, the only tennis player in history to win two gold medals in the singles category, in 2012.
