Rafael Nadal, the 22-time Grand Slam singles champion, has been named in Spain’s squad for the Davis Cup finals in Malaga, which could mark his farewell event.

The tennis legend, who has not played since reaching the quarter-finals of the men’s doubles at the Paris Olympics, has previously hinted that this season may be his last.

Alongside Nadal in the Spanish team are world number three Carlos Alcaraz, Roberto Bautista Agut, Pablo Carreno and Marcel Granollers.

“He (Nadal) told me about his desire to be in Malaga if we qualify,” said team captain David Ferrer during a press conference on Monday.
