Boris Becker believes it is “far-fetched” to think Novak Djokovic can chase down Roger Federer’s record 17 Grand Slam title haul.

The German, six-time major winner who has coached Djokovic to unprecedented success since joining his team in 2013, insists the two have yet to discuss eclipsing the Swiss’ record – despite Djokovic having defeated Federer, who last won a Slam in 2012, in three consecutive major finals.

“At the moment I think that’s far fetched, it’s not something we talk about,” the three-time Wimbledon champion told Laureus.com, speaking on behalf of his player who has been nominated for the 2016 World Sportsman of the Year Award for the second straight year.
