Alisha Lehmann has criticised the disparity between earnings in men's and women's football. How much exactly does the attractive Juventus player earn? A figure has appeared in the media.

Alisha Lehmann joined Juventus this summer. She moved to the club not by chance, along with her partner in personal life, Douglas Luiz. Both transfers were widely discussed because the Swiss international is one of the world's most famous female football players. She owes this, in part, to her extraordinary beauty and adeptness in social media.

In September, Alisha Lehmann spoke out on the disparity between earnings in men's and women's football.

After training, I often tell Douglas that it's unfair. We do the same job, but he earns 100,000 times more than me - said Alisha Lehmann in an interview with the newspaper "La Repubblica".

The discussion about earnings in women's football has been revived. Some agree with the idea of equalizing them, while others do not. The media have reported how much exactly Alisha Lehmann earns at Juventus, which may help form an opinion.

The Swiss athlete is set to earn approximately £165,000 annually, which means she receives about £14,000 monthly. According to the AI Score portal, Douglas Luiz earns about £7.5 million annually.

17 million people on Instagram follow Alisha Lehmann. Active on other social media platforms, the athlete earns by playing for Juventus and through sponsorship deals and brand promotions.
