Alisha Lehmann hits out at football's gender pay gap and claims boyfriend Douglas Luiz earns '100,000 times more' than her

Alisha Lehmann has hit out at football’s gender pay gap and claimed her boyfriend Douglas Luiz earns 100,000 times more than her.

Lehmann joined Juventus in the summer and made her Serie A Femminile debut on September 1, netting a goal from the bench in a 6-3 victory.

“Juventus is a great club. If you join them, you can win. My career goal is also to win trophies.”

She added: “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.”

However, speaking to La Repubblica, the 25-year-old did noted the disparity between the salary of her and her partner, Juventus midfielder Luiz

Lehmann said: "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."
