Alisha Lehmann Brutally Trolled After Claiming It’s ‘Unfair’ She Earns Far Less Than Boyfriend Douglas Luiz

The Alisha Lehmann salary difference between her and Douglas Luiz has been branded ‘unfair’ by the Juventus Women’s star. 

In the summer, Lehmann and Luiz both completed historic moves away from Aston Villa. Meaning they became the first ever boyfriend and girlfriend football transfer.

Brazil international Luiz swapped Villa Park for the Allianz Stadium in a £50million deal. It is understood he pockets around £100,000 per-week.

Lehmann’s move proved to be a lot less fruitful in a financial sense. Subsequently, the 25-year-old is reported to be earning around the same as what she did in the Midlands – £200,000 per-year.

Disputes often arise about the vast pay difference in the men’s and women’s games. However, the revenue intakes favour the men by a considerable distance. Consequently, meaning wages are much higher.

🗣️ Alisha Lehmann (Douglas Luiz's girlfriend):

"I do the same job as Douglas, play for the same club but I earn 100 times less money. It's not fair. It's something that affects me, because I'm a woman."

Alisha Lehmann Salary Slammed By Juventus Women’s Star

The Alisha Lehmann salary dispute is not directly aimed at Juventus – but more a dig at how contrasting wages are across the men’s and women’s game.

“Everyone would like to have the same salary. I often speak to Douglas at home about this and tell him it’s not fair. We do the same job, but he gets paid a hundred times more than me,” she told  La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“It’s something that affects me because I’m a woman. Obviously, there’s still a long way to go on the path we’re on because there may never be equal pay.

“There will have to be a very strong will to make a change in this direction,” she added. Nonetheless, many s on X, formerly Twitter, were quick to blast the glam Swiss star.

Many reminded her of her estimated £2.5m fortune that she’s earned via various endorsements deals and modelling. She also has 17m followers on Instagram alone.

You earn 100 times less because you generate 100 times less

Where would the high salary come from if Women's football is nowhere near what Men's football generates in revenue?? 😭

And you sell an Alisha Lehmann calendar every year, do you think Douglas would earn the same with it if he made one too? Is that also unfair? 😅

How many times do we need to counter this bullshit with numbers & rational thinking? Really not doing the growth of women’s football… https://t.co/CM56AnmZhb
