London – Is it getting worse for tennis legend Boris Becker?
One day, at the latest after his two-and-a-half-year sentence has expired, he will be free again.
But his personal nightmare could continue after that.

reported on it.
As the British Ministry of the Interior has confirmed to the English newspaper

Boris Becker faces deportation after imprisonment
As long as the country expulsion remains valid, Becker should no longer enter Great Britain.
Becker could take legal action against this regulation.
The chances of success are uncertain, for this legal question there does not seem to be any precedent in Great Britain.

So it is not unlikely that Boris Becker will never be allowed to set foot on the island again.
All doors are open to him in his native Germany, but London has been the center of the former Wimbledon winner's life for a decade.
A lifelong deportation would also mean that he would no longer be able to do his job as a tennis expert on British television.
And that he could never set foot on "his" sacred Wimbledon lawn again.
Boris Becker plays table tennis in prison and is 'a model inmate'
Becker has been serving his sentence for delaying bankruptcy in London's Huntercombe prison for three months.
A prison source told the Mirror: "He uses all the facilities.
He is a model inmate and there have been no incidents.” Other informants told the newspaper that Becker played a lot of table tennis and taught other inmates.
Becker's former rival John McEnroe would like to visit the 54-year-old.
"Boris is my friend.
That's just awful.
He is one of the greatest tennis players ever.
Boris, we miss you," he said on a
BBC program
.
While Boris Becker counts the days until his release, his ex-wife Lilly lets it rip on a luxury yacht.
