The family had spent Spain’s nationwide coronavirus lockdown of March and April in the mansion, which sits in the exclusive Sierra Blanca urbanisation.

Just a five-minute drive from Marbella centre, the 1,000sqm property was previously available to rent for €10,000 per week.

Sitting on a plot of 3,500sqm, the sprawling home comes complete with a private tennis court, perfect for Novak to train on when he’s not hitting shots down at the Puente Roman hotel.

PRIORITIES: No sports star’s home can come complete without a gym

With his new home, Novak will be closer to his brother Marko Djokovic, a former doubles player who is also based on the Costa del Sol.

The new pad features nine bedrooms and eight bathrooms, an outdoor and indoor pool and several lounges.

And the kids (and adults) would have struggled to be bored during lockdown with a cinema and television room, a games room with billiards and table football.

With a mix of Mediterranean and Moroccan furnishings, the home is completed by a sauna and Turkish bath, a fully-equipped gym, large barbecue and patio.

During the first lockdown in Spain the tennis champ was spotted training at the Puente Romano hotel, breaking the rules laid out in the state of alarm.

At the end of June Novak held a tennis tournament in Croatia where a host of players and workers tested positive for COVID-19, including himself and his wife.
