I’m a proper footballer - Alisha Lehmann sends a message to social media bullies
)
Lehmann who is the most followed female footballer in the world recently opened up on her social media life and how she keeps enduring the constant abuse on social media from critics of her personality.
Over the course of her career, the Aston Villa no.7 has seen her social media following grow by millions on major platforms like Instagram, TikTok and Twitter.
Lehmann’s popularity which is also down to her stunning looks and beautiful physique has seen her become a target of incessant trolling and abuse online.
She told talkSPORT:
Some people just see Instagram and social media and don't even know I actually play football, when I don't post a football picture for a week, people say, 'oh she doesn't even play.'
I think sometimes it's a bit hard because obviously I play like I train every day, like everyone else, like I play every weekend and sometimes it's hard because they make a picture of you.’

"I'm a proper 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.”

This would not be the first time the world’s most beautiful footballer, Lehmann, has opened up on the hardships of striking a balance between being a social media influencer and a professional footballer.
Earlier this year, the Switzerland international emphasized the need for football and femininity to not be viewed as mutually exclusive entities, while urging future generations to embrace a more complex outlook of footballers.
"The message I want to give to people [is] that you can literally be however you want and still play football,” she said. “Use make-up or do the things you like, do your nails, do your eyelashes, and still play football. It’s not a side you have to pick.
“It’s really important that no one changes because people tell you to. When I was younger a lot of people told me, ‘Oh, you can’t wear make-up. You can’t wear your lashes when you play’.
"At one point I thought, ‘Why not?’ It’s normal and it doesn’t hurt anyone if I do it. I feel like we should see this as normal. Because I’m someone that likes it a lot. I want to look really feminine. It’s my passion.”, she said in an interview with UK Times.
The 24-year-old former West Ham forward, has helped Aston Villa to fifth place this season in the Women’s Super League.

Lehmann has scored four goals and created two assists this campaign across 20 appearances for the Villains.
Alisha Lehmann’s contract with Villa is set to expire this summer after she signed a one-year extension last summer following her first year with the club.
Pulse Sports previously reported that Alisha Lehmann was nearly mobbed by fans recently before eventually being saved by Manchester United star Marcus Rashford who invited her and her friends to his VIP room with him and his close pals instead.
According to reports, that encounter at the nightclub was the duo’s first-ever meeting between the Villa women’s star and Marcus Rashford.
