Novak Djokovic reached out to former coach Boris Becker to show support in the wake of the Hall of Famer’s bankruptcy proceedings last week.

“Well, when I had heard it, I have checked in with him right away,” Djokovic told the media in Eastbourne. “He says that it's not true and that media overreacted. That's all I know. I'll see him now in London.”

Becker, who owes creditors a "substantial" amount of money, was declared bankrupt in a Bankruptcy and Companies Court hearing in London last week.

The former Wimbledon champion took to Twitter saying he can repay his debt.

"Surprised and disappointed that Arbuthnot Latham chose to bring these proceedings against me," Becker wrote on Twitter, regarding the bankruptcy application made by banker Arbuthnot Latham & Co over a loan Becker owes. "This order relates to 1 disputed loan which I was due to repay in full in 1 month time! It is disappointing that my request for today's hearing to be postponed was refused.

"My earnings are well publicized and it was a clear that I have the means to repay this debt."

The 49-year-old Becker coached Djokovic to six of his 12 Grand Slam titles.

The fourth-seeded Serbian said the pair are still tight and expressed love and support for Becker.

“We're still friends,” Djokovic said. “We still stay, even though we are not working with each other, we are still very close in terms of communication. I love Boris as a person, and as a coach he contributed a lot to my life and to my career.

“So if I can, you know, be of any help to him, that's what I told him, I'm always there for him. He can count on me.”
