Novak Djokovic has been released from immigration detention after an Australian court quashed his visa cancellation.
The federal court ordered the government to pay the tennis star’s costs and release him immediately – however the immigration minister could still intervene.
Djokovic is thought to currently be with his lawyers in Melbourne considering his options.
The tennis star confirmed he tested positive for COVID-19 on 16 December, which was followed by a negative test on 22 December.
Djokovic confirmed he has had the virus twice, and is not vaccinated.
