Carlos Alcaraz welcomed the addition of Rafa Nadal to Spain's Davis Cup team for the quarter-finals in November and hoped the event in Malaga will not mark the end of the 22-times Grand Slam champion's career.

The last dance of Rafael Nadal's tennis career: could it be on the courts of Malaga, for the Davis Cup Finals? The teams that will take part in the Final 8 scheduled in the Spanish city from 19 to 24 November have been made official and, among the names chosen by captain David Ferrer, there is also the legendary winner of 22 Slam titles.

Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz have been named to Spain’s roster for the Davis Cup Finals. Monday's announcement raises the possibility of a renewal of the “Nadalcaraz” doubles partnership from the Paris Olympics.
