Juventus’ Alisha Lehmann hits out at gender pay gap in football

She has claimed that boyfriend Douglas Luiz earns '100,000 times' more than her

Juventus' Alisha Lehmann has hit out at the gender pay gap in football, claiming that boyfriend Douglas Luiz earns 100,000 times more than her.

Joining in the summer, Lehmann made her Juventus debut on September 1, scoring in a 6-3 victory versus Femminile.

Speaking to Gazetta, she stated: “I’m very happy to be here. The girls are nice, and we help each other on the pitch; I think I’ve made the best decision.

“The team is like a second family, and I am ready to learn from my teammates.

“I like talking to people with more experience than me because you can always learn something. Perhaps social media will push people to follow Women’s Football more. It’s a developing process that takes time.”

When speaking to la Repubblica, Lehmann spoke on the gender pay gap in football:

 "I'm not a star, I'm a normal person. I go home, I cook, I do the same thing as everyone else.

“After training, I often tell Douglas that it's unfair. We do the same job, but he earns 100,000 times more than me."

Juventus bought the midfielder for a reported £42,000.
