A well-known name's offer of 110 thousand dollars to Aston Villa star Alisha Lehmann shook the agenda! Lehmann explained behind the scenes.
Aston Villa women's team take to the pitch in their feared kit
One of the most recognizable faces in international women's football, the striker has more than 15.5 million followers on Instagram.
Lehmann is thought to be the most valuable female soccer player on the social media platform for this summer's Women's World Cup, with an average media value per post of £241,314.
The 24-year-old actress is also the first female brand ambassador for Prime, the sports hydration drink from KSI and Logan Paul, joining the likes of Erling Haaland.
The WSL star has such a reputation that for the second year in a row he is also publishing his own calendar.
Lehmann's reputation extends beyond the WSL and is likely to have attracted international admirers, but one request has caused the Swiss starlet to raise eyebrows.
The actor shared a memory he had on the DirTea Talk podcast and made the following statements:
“I was in Miami, my favorite place, and I met some friends in a club. I got a message on my cell phone, I didn't answer it, but the same person then texted my bodyguard who was taking care of me.”
“The messages came from a very well-known person. We had met before at an event and the message said, ‘I will pay Alisha 100,000 Swiss francs (about $110,000) to spend a night with him’.”
While Lehmann turned down the offer, he sarcastically questioned the amount, prompting the unnamed man to text his bodyguard again.
“But my answer is ‘No way! Only 110,000?’. The crazy thing is that I still have your message on my phone. It's a bit silly.”
When asked to give a clue about the man's identity, he remained tight-lipped, saying: “I can't reveal his name. But he is very, very well known internationally.”
The 24-year-old is thought to have the highest estimated earnings per post on Instagram of any female soccer player at the Women's World Cup:
“Some people look at Instagram and social media and they don't even know that I actually play soccer, when I don't post a soccer photo for a week people say ‘he doesn't even play’.”
“Sometimes I think it's a little bit difficult because I train every day, I play every weekend like everybody else and sometimes it's difficult because they take your picture.”
“I'm a real footballer, I work hard every day, I want to be the best version of myself in football and that's my first priority in life.”
The 42-time international joined Villa in 2021 and in August extended his stay in the Midlands until 2026, with an option to extend for another year.
