the essentials in brief
- Roger Federer (41) will soon be back in action at the site of his greatest triumphs.
- According to British media, the BBC would like to win him as a TV expert and commentator.
- For this, the Maestro should receive a fee of over 180,000 British pounds.
Will Roger Federer (41) soon be going back to his “living room”? According to British media, the Swiss could soon make his Wimbledon comeback. However, he would not return to the place of his triumphs with a bat, but with a microphone in his hand.
According to “The Telegraph”, there should have been talks between the Swiss Wimbledon record winner and the BBC. The British broadcaster would like to win the tennis star as a TV expert for Wimbledon coverage.
When he resigned last fall, the maestro had already said that he could well imagine such a role. Now that presenter Sue Barker (66) has retired, it seems the right opportunity has come. After his prison sentence, Boris Becker (55) is probably not a suitable candidate at the moment.
Appearances for BBC and ESPN
“The Telegraph” also explains how Federer’s use in the tennis classic in Wimbledon could look like. So it is possible that the Swiss could be seen alternately on the BBC and the American broadcaster ESPN. One day he would be commentating on a game for the BBC and later in the studio analyzing another for ESPN. Vice versa the next day.

The 41-year-old should collect a handsome sum for the performances. Joe McEnroe is said to have received £180,000 for Wimbledon in recent years. Federer would hardly be fobbed off with less.
