New Delhi: World no 3 tennis player Daniil Medvedev admitted that Rafael Nadal is still expected to be a "great challenge" for him in the next season when the Spaniard returns from a long injury layoff.

The 22-time Grand Slam champion will make his comeback after a year-long absence from the competition due to an iliopsoas injury in his left leg at the Brisbane International, before competing at the 2024 Australian Open.

The 37-year-old Nadal is undoubtedly coming towards the end of his career, but Medvedev, while discussing the return of the Spaniard with The National admitted he was still a daunting prospect.
