Excluded from federal structures, Corentin Moutet changes coach

The news was expected, it was formalized by Corentin Moutet. While his eviction from the structures of the FFT had been revealed in the middle of the Rolex Paris Masters, it seemed impossible for the left-hander to continue to collaborate with Laurent Raymond, federal coach. The two men will therefore no longer work together next season, as Moutet confirmed in a social media post on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old was not stingy with thanks for the one who had come to terms with his volcanic character. “Thank you for crossing my path, thank you for accepting my choices, thank you for forgiving my mistakes, thank you for all these victories, thank you for your daily stability, thank you for your calm, thank you for everything. Without you, I certainly wouldn’t be here today. Good luck for the future, you have all my respect. Thank you Lawrence“, he thus enumerated in the form of an anaphora.

Popovic is preparing it for 2023

Under the direction of Raymond, Moutet discovered for the first time in his career the second week of a Grand Slam tournament during the last US Open (round of 16). He also reached the best ranking of his career at the end of the season after another eighth at Bercy: here he is now at the gates of the Top 50 (51st).

A course that he will try to cross alongside Petar Popovic, his new Serbian coach. The latter is known for having collaborated in particular with the German Andrea Petkovic, the Croatian Ivo Karlovic or his Serbian compatriot Filip Krajinovic.
