BELGRADE (Reuters) - Novak Djokovic will keep Andre Agassi as his head coach when he returns to action after recovering from an elbow injury which forced him to cut short his season in July, Serbia's former world number one said on Tuesday. "We can confirm that Agassi remains the head coach while Italian Marco Panichi will take over as the fitness coach and Argentine Ulises Badio is the new physio," Djokovic's press office said in a statement. "The only remaining issue is appointing a second coach and that will complete the staff accompanying Djokovic in 2018." That slump led him to cut his coaching ties with Boris Becker and following a shock second-round exit at the Australian Open, he parted ways with his entire training staff headed by Marian Vajda. "Djokovic is still nursing his elbow injury and has spent several days in Belgrade for some fitness training," the statement added.
